AFB-detection of DNA by Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for BAL (Bronchoalveolar Lavage) and other respiratory samples is a highly sensitive and specific method for identifying Acid-Fast Bacilli (AFB), with a focus on Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this technique, genetic material extracted from respiratory samples like BAL fluid is subjected to Real-time PCR, which amplifies and detects specific DNA sequences associated with AFB. This molecular approach provides rapid and accurate results, aiding in the prompt diagnosis of tuberculosis. AFB-detection by Real-time PCR in respiratory samples is particularly valuable for its high sensitivity, allowing for early detection and effective management of pulmonary tuberculosis.
