Skin scrapping for AFB Stain
A Skin Scraping for AFB Stain is used to detect the presence of Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB), such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis or other mycobacteria, on the skin. The procedure involves scraping the skin lesion and applying the sample to a slide for staining with an acid-fast stain (e.g., Ziehl-Neelsen). If AFB is present, it will appear as bright red or pink against a blue background. Preparation generally includes cleaning the lesion. Risks are minimal but can include mild discomfort. Results are typically available within a few days. A positive result suggests the presence of a mycobacterial infection.600 BDT
