A Comparison of Ziehl-Neelsen Staining and Fluorescent Microscopy for Diagnosis of Pulmonary Tuberculosis
According to WHO one third of the world population have tuberculosis. The present study was undertaken to compare the efficacy of flurochrome(FI) stain with conventional Z-N stain in the diagnosis of pulmonary & extrapulmonary tuberculosis. 388 cases of suspected pulmonary tuberculosis were included in the study. All samples were screen for Acid Fast Bacilli (AFB) by Z-N & Fluorescent staining ...
متن کاملComparison of Flurochrome , Ziehl-Neelsen and Tan Thiam Hok Staining Methods for Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Sputums of Patients with Pulmonary Tuberculosis
Abstract Background and objectives: Direct smear microscopy, because of its simplicity, rapidity, low cost and relatively sensitive is a suitable method to detecting pulmonary tuberculosis. This experiment was aimed at determining the best method for detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis among three kinds of staining methods: Fluorochrome, Ziehl Neelsen and Tan Thiam Hok . Material and Methods: ...
متن کاملZiehl-Neelsen Staining Technique Can Diagnose Paragonimiasis
BACKGROUND We evaluated the Ziehl-Neelsen staining (ZNS) technique for the diagnosis of paragonimiasis in Laos and compared different modifications of the ZNS techniques. METHODOLOGY WE APPLIED THE FOLLOWING APPROACH: We (1) examined a paragonimiasis index case's sputum with wet film direct examination (WF) and ZNS; (2) re-examined stored ZNS slides from two provinces; (3) compared prospectiv...
متن کاملمقایسه ارزش تشخیصی اسمیر خلط به دو روش میکروسکوپی در بیماران مشکوک به سل ریوی با و بدون استفاده ازهیپوکلریت سدیم
Background and purpose: Direct smear microscopy is the most common method of detecting tuberculosis with 70% sensitivity in best conditions, therefore, researches have always focused on improving the sensitivity of sputum smear. This study aimed at comparing the diagnostic value of sputum smear using light microscopy and fluorescence microscopy without sodium hypochlorite in patients with suspe...
متن کاملComparison of Polymerase Chain Reaction, Ziehl-Neelsen Staining and Histopathologic Findings in Formalin-fixed, Paraffin-Embedded Tissue Specimens for Diagnosis of Tuberculosis
Background and Objective: Tuberculosis is still a major health problem, involving about 1/3 of the world´s population. Diagnosis is difficult when we only use Ziehl-Neelson staining. Many cases may be missed. A more rapid and sensitive diagnostic method is necessary. PCR may be helpful. The aim of this study was to compare PCR, Zieh-Neelsen staining and histopathologic findings in diagnosis of ...
