Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) DNA PCR (Qualitative)

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) DNA PCR (Qualitative) is a molecular diagnostic test that detects the presence of TB-causing bacteria by identifying its genetic material. Using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology, this test provides rapid and highly sensitive detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, even in samples with low bacterial load. It is especially useful in early diagnosis, extrapulmonary tuberculosis, and cases where conventional smear microscopy is negative. A qualitative result confirms the presence or absence of TB DNA, aiding prompt clinical decision-making. Early and accurate diagnosis allows timely initiation of anti-tubercular therapy and helps reduce disease transmission.
