🔬 Understanding Microbiology Testing

Microbiology testing involves the identification and analysis of pathogens that cause infections. These pathogens are detected using cultures, microscopic examination, and molecular techniques. Our lab performs these tests with high precision to assist healthcare providers in formulating appropriate treatment plans.

🦠 Types of Microorganisms Tested

• Bacteria 🦠
• Viruses 🦠
• Fungi 🍄
• Parasites 🦠

📌 How Microbiology Testing Works

• 1️⃣ Sample Collection – A sample is collected from the infected area (blood, urine, sputum, etc.)
• 2️⃣ Culturing & Incubation – The sample is cultured to allow pathogens to grow.
• 3️⃣ Identification – Microorganisms are identified using molecular methods or microscopy.
• 4️⃣ Sensitivity Testing – Testing is done to determine the effectiveness of antibiotics.
• 5️⃣ Report – A comprehensive report is generated with the test results.

🏥 Common Infections Diagnosed Through Microbiology Testing

• Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs)
• Respiratory Infections (e.g., Pneumonia, Tuberculosis)
• Gastrointestinal Infections
• Bloodstream Infections (Sepsis)
• Fungal Infections
• Skin and Soft Tissue Infections

🧬 Antibiotic Resistance Testing

Antibiotic resistance is a growing concern in microbiology. Our tests not only identify the microorganisms but also determine their resistance to specific antibiotics, ensuring that treatment is both effective and targeted.
