Asymptomatic bacteriuria refers to the presence of bacteria in the urine with the absence of signs and symptoms. Clinically asymptomatic bacteriuria is very common and the incidence increases with the age. The most common bacteria that can be seen in bacteriuria is E.coli. A midstream clean-catch method was used to collect the first-morning specimen of urine from 24 different LIMU students 12 male and 12 female. SPSS software was used for the statistical analysis of CFU/mL of the urine cultures. The result of this lab report was that females have a greater incidence rate of asymptomatic bacteriuria than males. The result of the prevalence of differences between males and females also can be due to anatomical urethral differences and other factors such as bactericidal zinc secreted by the male prostate.
