₹1,800.00
Mycobacterium Complex – PCR (Ascitic Fluid) Test – Short Description:
The Mycobacterium Complex PCR (Ascitic Fluid) test detects the DNA of *Mycobacterium* species, including *Mycobacterium tuberculosis* and non-tuberculous mycobacteria, in ascitic fluid. This test is used to diagnose mycobacterial infections, such as tuberculosis peritonitis, in patients with ascites (fluid accumulation in the abdomen) and symptoms like fever, abdominal pain, or weight loss. PCR provides a highly sensitive and rapid method for detecting mycobacterial DNA, particularly in cases where traditional culture methods may take longer or yield negative results, enabling early diagnosis and timely treatment of mycobacterial infections.
