Body Fluid For AFB Stain/ZN Stain
Over the last 5 Years we made an impact that is strong & we have long way to go.
The AFB (Acid-Fast Bacilli) Stain/ZN (Ziehl-Neelsen) Stain is a laboratory test used to detect the presence of acid-fast bacteria, particularly Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), in body fluids or specimens. This test is crucial for diagnosing TB or other mycobacterial infections, especially when the patient has symptoms such as a persistent cough, chest pain, or unexplained weight loss.
