AFB Xpert Panel Test
About the AFB Xpert Panel Test
The AFB Xpert Panel Test is a rapid molecular diagnostic test used to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB bacteria) and assess resistance to rifampicin, a key anti-tuberculosis drug. “AFB” refers to acid-fast bacilli, while “Xpert” indicates a cartridge-based nucleic acid amplification technique that identifies TB DNA within hours.
At healthcare nt sickcare in Pune, this test supports early TB diagnosis and treatment planning, especially in suspected drug-resistant cases. Samples are processed under strict quality protocols, with options for Home Collection Facility across Pune and Direct Walk-in Facility at the centre.
Key Test Details
This test provides rapid TB detection with simultaneous rifampicin resistance screening.
What does the test detect?
It detects tuberculosis bacteria and rifampicin resistance using molecular DNA analysis.
Specimen Types Accepted
- Sputum
- Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL)
- Pus
- Other clinically relevant samples as advised
Frequently Asked Questions
This test is advised when tuberculosis is suspected, especially in cases with severe symptoms, previous TB treatment, or concern for drug-resistant TB.
Unlike routine microscopy, the Xpert test detects TB DNA and rifampicin resistance rapidly, improving diagnostic accuracy and early treatment decisions.
No fasting is required. Sample collection depends on specimen type and clinical guidance.
Persistent cough, fever, weight loss, night sweats, blood in sputum, or previous TB history may indicate the need for this test.
