Auramine-Rhodamine Stain Test
The Auramine-Rhodamine stain test is a fluorescence microscopy technique used to detect acid-fast bacilli (AFB), including *Mycobacterium tuberculosis*, the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB). This staining method utilizes the fluorescent dyes auramine and rhodamine, which bind to the mycolic acid in the cell walls of acid-fast bacteria, causing them to fluoresce under UV light.
