However ''E. tarda'' can be [[bacterial culture|cultured]] on specific [[growth medium]]s such as [[Brain heart infusion|brain-heart infusion agar]] and techniques such as [[Immunofluorescence|indirect fluorescent antibody testing]], [[ELISA]] and [[Loop-mediated isothermal amplification|loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP)]] can be used to confirm diagnosis. |
