AFB CULTURE Test Overview & Clinical Guidelines
Test Description
An AFB (Acid-Fast Bacilli) Culture is a highly specialized microbiological investigation performed on clinical specimens (such as sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage, or body fluids) to isolate and grow Mycobacterium tuberculosis or non-tuberculous mycobacteria. Because mycobacteria divide exceptionally slowly, automated or manual liquid and solid cultures are maintained for up to six weeks. It is the absolute gold standard for confirming active tuberculosis, evaluating multi-drug resistant strains (MDR-TB) via drug susceptibility testing, and verifying definitive mycobacterial clearance.
Fasting Requirement
No special fasting is required.
