Scrapping from Tung for AFB Stain

The Scraping from Tung for AFB Stain is a diagnostic test to detect Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB), commonly used for diagnosing tuberculosis (TB). The procedure involves scraping cells or tissue from a site, usually sputum, and staining it with a special dye to identify AFB under a microscope. Preparation typically requires no special steps, but the sample should be collected correctly. Risks are minimal, but discomfort may occur during sample collection. Results show the presence or absence of AFB; a positive result suggests TB or other infections. Conditions like recent antibiotic use can affect accuracy.
