CULTURE SWAB
₹500.00
The Culture Swab test is used to detect bacterial or fungal infections from various body sites. A swab is taken from a specific area (such as the skin, throat, wound, or mucous membranes) and cultured in a laboratory to encourage the growth of microorganisms. The test helps identify pathogens that may be causing infections.
Depending on the location of the swab, it may be used to diagnose conditions such as skin infections , respiratory infections (like strep throat), wound infections , or urinary tract infections . The results help determine the specific organism causing the infection and guide the selection of the most effective antibiotics or antifungal treatments.
