CSF FOR AFB-STAIN

Hypro Diagnostics relies on the initial Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB) stain for presumptive diagnoses of mycobacterial illnesses. However, it is essential for all suspected cases to undergo an AFB culture as a follow-up step. This culture is pivotal in confirming diagnoses by facilitating the growth and identification of distinct mycobacterial species. This combined diagnostic approach ensures the precision needed for targeted medical interventions in treating mycobacterial infections.
