To fight tuberculosis, a major public health problem. We have special DOT room for treatment of TB patients. Sputum smear microscopy, using the Ziehl–Neelsen staining technique, is conducted at the Lab.
For diagnosis, two sputum samples are collected over two days (as spot-morning/morning-spot) from chest symptomatic (patients with presenting with a history of cough for two weeks or more) to arrive at a diagnosis. In addition to the test's high specificity, the use of two samples ensures that the diagnostic procedure has a high (>99%) test sensitivity as well.
