An AFB-Xpert Panel (MTB/RIF Detection & AFB Culture) for extrapulmonary samples is a comprehensive diagnostic profile. It combines two different testing methodologies—molecular testing (CBNAAT/GeneXpert) and traditional microbiology (AFB Culture)—to provide the highest possible accuracy when identifying tuberculosis outside of the lungs.
By pairing these two tests, clinicians get the speed of genetic testing alongside the definitive accuracy of a live culture.
1. Component 1: Rapid Molecular Testing (MTB/RIF by CBNAAT)
The first phase of the panel uses DNA amplification technology to analyze non-lung samples (such as lymph node aspirates, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), pleural fluid, or tissue biopsies).
M.Tb Detection: It targets specific DNA sequences of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, offering a rapid "yes/no" result.
Rifampicin Resistance: It analyzes the rpoB gene of the bacteria. If mutations are found, it indicates resistance to Rifampicin. This allows doctors to flag suspected Multi-Drug Resistant TB (MDR-TB) within just 2 hours.
By pairing these two tests, clinicians get the speed of genetic testing alongside the definitive accuracy of a live culture.
