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 SUSCEPTIBILITY : Ethionamide
This test assesses whether the Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) responsible for an infection are susceptible to Ethionamide, an antibiotic often used in treating drug-resistant tuberculosis. It's essential for guiding treatment when first-line drugs are not effective.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY : Isoniazid
This test determines if the Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) causing an infection are susceptible to Isoniazid, one of the most important first-line drugs for treating tuberculosis. It's vital for ensuring the initial treatment plan will be effective.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY : LINEZOLID
This test checks if the bacteria causing an Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) infection, such as tuberculosis, are sensitive to the antibiotic Linezolid. It helps doctors choose the most effective medication to treat your infection. Understanding drug susceptibility is vital for successful treatment outcomes.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY : Pyrazinamide
This test determines if the bacteria causing tuberculosis (TB) are susceptible or resistant to the antibiotic Pyrazinamide. It helps doctors understand if this specific medication will be effective in treating the infection.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY, BACTEC : 10 DRUG PANEL
This comprehensive test uses the BACTEC method to determine the susceptibility of tuberculosis-causing bacteria to a panel of 10 different anti-TB drugs. It provides a broad overview of drug resistance.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY, BACTEC : 13 DRUG PANEL
This test identifies which antibiotics can effectively treat an infection caused by acid-fast bacilli (AFB), such as tuberculosis. It uses a specialized BACTEC method to test the bacteria's response to 13 different drugs, guiding your doctor to the most effective treatment plan.
AFB SUSCEPTIBILITY, BACTEC : 5 DRUG PANEL
This test determines which antibiotics are effective against an infection caused by acid-fast bacilli (AFB), like tuberculosis. Using the BACTEC method, it checks the bacteria's sensitivity to 5 key drugs, helping doctors choose the best treatment.
AFB-Isolation by rapid culture by Bactec MGIT
This test involves isolating and growing Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) from a blood sample using a rapid culture method called Bactec MGIT. This advanced technique allows for faster detection and identification of mycobacteria compared to traditional culture methods. It's crucial for confirming an active infection.
AFB-Xpert panel by Genexpert M.Tb detection & Rifamipicin resistance Extra pulmonary samples
This test uses advanced technology to quickly detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.Tb), the bacteria causing tuberculosis, in samples taken from outside the lungs. It also checks if the bacteria are resistant to Rifampicin, a key TB medication.
AFB-Xpert panel by Genexpert M.Tb detection & Rifamipicin resistance pulmonary samples
This advanced test helps detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.Tb), the bacteria causing pulmonary tuberculosis, and checks for resistance to Rifampicin, a key TB drug, using a blood sample. It provides rapid and accurate results.
AIA(Aspergillus Induced Asthma) Fungus Culture, stain & identification, Total IgE advanced, Aspergillus IgE, Sputum Eosinophils
This comprehensive panel investigates Aspergillus Induced Asthma (AIA) by combining several tests. It includes a fungus culture and identification, advanced total IgE levels, specific IgE for Aspergillus, and an analysis of eosinophils in sputum to assess allergic and inflammatory responses.
