Tech. Sgt. Elizabeth Ehrnschwender, 99th Medical Support Squadron noncommissioned officer in charge of microbiology, unloads blood cultures from the BacT/ALERT 3D machine, April 10, 2013, at Nellis Air Force Base, Nev. The BacT/ALERT 3D is used for sepsis risk stratification and monitoring for the presence or absence of microorganisms in blood, sterile body fluids, and mycobacteria. Early detection of sepsis is important because it is a potentially deadly medical condition characterized by a whole-body inflammatory state caused by severe infection.
