Ascitic Fluid AFB Smear

An Ascitic Fluid AFB Smear is a diagnostic test used to detect acid-fast bacilli (AFB), such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis (the bacterium responsible for tuberculosis), in ascitic fluid. Ascitic fluid is the liquid that accumulates in the peritoneal cavity, which is the space within the abdomen that surrounds the abdominal organs. This test is most often used to diagnose tuberculous peritonitis, which is a form of peritoneal tuberculosis (TB) that can cause ascites (fluid buildup in the abdomen).

Ascitic Fluid D/R

Ascitic fluid for creatinine

The ascitic fluid creatinine test measures the level of creatinine in ascitic fluid, which is the fluid that accumulates in the abdominal cavity in conditions like cirrhosis, heart failure, or infections. Ascitic fluid is typically obtained through a procedure called paracentesis, where a needle is inserted into the abdomen to withdraw the fluid for analysis.

Ascitic Fluid SSAG [Serum Ascitic Albumin Gradient], (Serum Albumin-Ascitic Albumin)

The Serum Ascitic Albumin Gradient (SSAG), also known as the Serum-Ascitic Albumin Gradient (SAAG), is a laboratory test used to help determine the cause of ascites (the accumulation of fluid in the abdominal cavity). It is calculated by measuring the albumin levels in both serum (the liquid part of the blood) and ascitic fluid (the fluid that accumulates in the abdomen).

ASOT

ASOT (Antistreptolysin O Titer) is a blood test that measures the level of antistreptolysin O antibodies in the blood. These antibodies are produced in response to an infection with Group A Streptococcus bacteria, which are responsible for infections such as strep throat, scarlet fever, and rheumatic fever.

Bacterial slants

Bacterial slants are a type of laboratory culture medium used to grow and store bacterial cultures. The term "slant" refers to the shape of the agar medium, which is solidified in a test tube at an angle. This angled surface provides a larger area for the growth of bacterial colonies, making bacterial slants useful for both culturing and long-term storage of bacterial strains.
