-11%

The “Cultured AFB Antitubercular DST Ofloxacin Test” is a specialized diagnostic procedure aimed at evaluating the susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (the bacterium responsible for tuberculosis) to the antibiotic Ofloxacin. This test is crucial in the management and treatment of tuberculosis, particularly in cases where drug resistance is a concern. By culturing the bacteria from a patient’s sample and exposing it to Ofloxacin, the test determines whether the bacteria are resistant or sensitive to the drug, guiding healthcare professionals in tailoring the most effective treatment regimen for the patient.

Performed at DNA Labs UAE, a leading diagnostic facility known for its advanced testing capabilities and commitment to quality, this test is priced at 660 AED. DNA Labs UAE utilizes state-of-the-art technology and follows strict protocols to ensure accurate and reliable results, contributing significantly to the effective management of tuberculosis by identifying the most appropriate antitubercular therapy for patients.

CULTURED AFB ANTITUBERCULAR DST OFLOXACIN Test

Welcome to DNA Labs UAE, where we offer a wide range of genetic lab services. Today, we will be discussing the CULTURED AFB ANTITUBERCULAR DST OFLOXACIN Test.

Test Details

The Cultured AFB Antitubercular DST (Drug Susceptibility Testing) ofloxacin test is a laboratory test used to determine the susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to the antibiotic ofloxacin. This test helps in guiding the choice of appropriate antibiotic treatment for tuberculosis.

Test Components

The test includes the following components:

  • Test Name: CULTURED AFB ANTITUBERCULAR DST OFLOXACIN Test
  • Price: 660.0 AED
  • Sample Condition: Submit pure growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex on appropriate media in a sterile screw capped container in a sealed plastic bag. Ship refrigerated or when used with other AFB culture or Mycobacteria identification tests, the pure growth obtained in the Laboratory from specimens already submitted will be processed for Antitubercular Sensitivity.
  • Report Delivery: Sample Daily by 3.30 pm; Report 21 days
  • Method: Automated Fluorescent
  • Test Type: Tuberculosis
  • Doctor: Physician
  • Test Department: Pre Test Information: No special preparation required

Test Procedure

During the test, a sample of the patient’s sputum or other bodily fluids is cultured in a laboratory setting. The bacteria are then exposed to different concentrations of ofloxacin to see how they respond. The goal is to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), which is the lowest concentration of the drug that prevents the growth of the bacteria.

Test Results and Treatment

The test results can help guide the choice of appropriate antibiotic treatment for tuberculosis. If the bacteria are susceptible to ofloxacin, it can be included in the treatment regimen. However, if the bacteria are resistant to ofloxacin, alternative antibiotics will need to be used.

It is important to note that the Cultured AFB Antitubercular DST ofloxacin test is just one of many tests used to determine the susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to different antibiotics. The results of this test, along with other tests, are used to create a comprehensive drug susceptibility profile for effective tuberculosis treatment.
