Sterling Accuris Diagnostics offers the AFB-MTB Antibiogram MACC Test in Kalol to measure the effectiveness of a range of drugs against acid-fast bacilli (AFB) Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Overview of AFB-MTB Antibiogram MACC Test
India is one of the most heavily impacted nations when it comes to tuberculosis. This widespread and infectious disease, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis which belongs to a family of bacteria known as acid-fast bacilli (AFB), has been further exacerbated due its tendency towards individuals infected with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus). Of particular concern is that this dangerous condition predominantly affects the lungs. Due to the evolution of drug resistance in bacteria, screening for susceptibility is crucial. The AFB-MTB Antibiogram test offers an insightful antibiogram, giving a snapshot of the microorganism's susceptibility to various antibiotics. This provides crucial information for determining effective treatment methods.
For an accurate diagnosis, you can head to Sterling Accuris Diagnostics for an AFB-MTB Antibiogram MACC Test in Kalol.
Why and When is an AFB-MTB Antibiogram MACC Test Done?
TB bacteria can become resistant to certain antibiotics, leading to drug-resistant tuberculosis. TB occurs when an infected person spreads the airborne bacterium through sneezing, coughing and even simply speaking or singing - in turn exposing others nearby who may then inhale it and contract the disease themselves.
A healthcare practitioner might recommend this test if:
- A person was positive in the TB screening test
- To plan treatment and understand how the treatment is working
- A person has symptoms related to tuberculosis
Sterling Accuris Diagnostics runs an AFB-MTB Antibiogram MACC Test in Kalol with timely and reliable results.
