About test
What does ANTIBIOGRAM - MTB (KANAMYCIN) measure?
This test evaluates whether Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the bacterium that causes tuberculosis, is susceptible or resistant to kanamycin, an antibiotic used in selected tuberculosis treatment regimens. It may be ordered when drug-resistant tuberculosis is suspected or when treatment planning requires information about antibiotic sensitivity. Results may help healthcare professionals choose appropriate medicines and monitor resistance patterns.
