ADA Adenosine Deaminase Peritoneal Fluid
The ADA Peritoneal Fluid test measures the level of Adenosine Deaminase, an enzyme, in the fluid surrounding your abdominal organs (peritoneal fluid). This test helps doctors investigate the cause of fluid buildup in the abdomen, known as ascites.
ADA Adenosine Deaminase Pleural Fluid
The ADA Pleural Fluid test measures the level of Adenosine Deaminase, an enzyme, in the fluid surrounding your lungs (pleural fluid). This test is used to help determine the cause of fluid accumulation around the lungs, known as pleural effusion.
ADA Adenosine Deaminase PUS
The ADA PUS test measures Adenosine Deaminase levels in your blood to help assess systemic inflammation or infection, particularly when pus formation is suspected elsewhere in the body. It provides insights into the body's immune response.
ADA Adenosine Deaminase Serum
The ADA Serum test measures the level of Adenosine Deaminase, an enzyme, in your blood serum. This test is often used to assess overall immune system activity and can be a general indicator of inflammation or infection in the body.
ADENOVIRUS IgM
This blood test measures IgM antibodies specific to adenovirus. IgM antibodies are usually the first type of antibody produced by the body in response to a new infection, indicating a recent or active adenovirus infection.
Adrenaline Epinephrine, Plasma
This blood test measures the level of adrenaline (epinephrine) in your plasma. Adrenaline is a hormone produced by your adrenal glands, playing a key role in your body's "fight or flight" response.
AFB DRUG SENSITIVITY: MIC TEST FOR RAPID GROWING NON-TUBERCULOUS MYCOBACTERIA (NTM)
This test identifies the most effective antibiotics for treating infections caused by rapid-growing Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM). It uses the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) method to determine the lowest drug dose needed to stop the bacteria's growth, guiding precise treatment.
AFB RAPID GENOTYPIC TEST (MDR-TB) (Note: This test is not applicable for MOTT)
This rapid genotypic test identifies the presence of Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) and checks for specific genetic mutations associated with multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). It helps in quickly determining if the TB bacteria are resistant to common first-line medications. Please note, this test is specifically designed for Mycobacterium tuberculosis and is not applicable for other types of mycobacteria (MOTT).
AFB SECOND LINE DRUG- GENOTYPIC ASSAY (Note: This test is not applicable for MOTT)
This genotypic assay is used to detect resistance of Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) to second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs. It provides critical information when initial treatments are ineffective or if multi-drug resistance is suspected. This test is specifically for Mycobacterium tuberculosis and not for other mycobacteria (MOTT).
AFB SMEAR
An AFB Smear test involves examining a sample, such as urine, under a microscope to look for Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB). These bacteria are commonly associated with tuberculosis and other mycobacterial infections. It's a quick screening method to detect the presence of these microorganisms.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY : Amikacin
This test determines if acid-fast bacilli (AFB), often associated with tuberculosis, are susceptible to the antibiotic Amikacin. It helps guide treatment decisions for infections caused by these bacteria.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY : Capreomycin
This test checks if acid-fast bacilli (AFB), commonly linked to tuberculosis, are susceptible to the antibiotic Capreomycin. It's crucial for tailoring effective treatment plans for these specific infections.
