Zusammenfassung:	A system for detecting a target bacteria is disclosed. The system comprises a flow cytometer. The flow cytometer is configured to receive a fluid sample, wherein the fluid sample comprises at least a target bacteria and at least a contaminant bacteria. The flow cytometer is also configured to generate a first enumeration of a total bacteria in the fluid sample during a pre-incubation phase. The fluid sample is then incubated during an incubation phase. The flow cytometer then generates a second enumeration of the total bacteria in the fluid sample during a post-incubation phase. A computing device then determines a growth ratio of the total bacteria as a function of the first enumeration and the second enumeration. Finally, the computing device identifies the presence of the at least a target bacteria as a function of the growth ratio.
