This test, typically performed on a pure culture of Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB), primarily Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.tb), is crucial for determining the most effective treatment regimen for Tuberculosis (TB). It identifies whether the bacterial strain is Susceptible or Resistant to the standard first-line and crucial second-line anti-TB drugs.
