Online Doctor Appointment Health Check up Package Contact us DEPARTMENT OF MICROBIOLOGY The Department consists of a highly developed entry restricted Bacteriology, Mycobacteriology lab fitted with A.C & (BSL III, HEPA filter, MGIT 960 cool centrifuge) Mycology lab, Serological, Virology, Immunology & Parasitology lab. The daily workload of the department consists of around 70-80 Bacteriological cultures,35 T.B. culture& AFB Staining, 300 clinical virological investigations, 70 Serological, about 50 Parasitology & 35 Immunological, 15 Mycological investigations/day round the clock. The Department boasts of automated equipment like BACTEC Blood culture, VITEK Automation culture & sensitivity with MIC determinate, MGIT 960 for TB liquid culture & sensitivity & Fluorescent Microscopy apart from all conventional techniques of a standard Mycobacteriological lab. Sophisticated Immunological tests like Pro-calcitonin estimate for severe septic shock patient, Serum IgE testing for Atopypatients, Hepatitis ‘e’ antigen detection for acute viral replication& Infectivity detection & Anti core antibody detection for chronic Hepatitis ‘B’ patients apart from all ELISA tests forHep B, HepC, HIV, Dengue patients are being done. At the molecular level, diagnosis of TB, Malaria, Dengue, HPV, Fungal detection in corneal ulcer & keratitis cases, BAL fluid are being performed.Plans for the future include Gene X-pert for detection of resistant Mycobacterium and RT PCR based diagnosis for Hepatitis, HIV, Dengue, Swine flu, Chikungunya virus etc. FACULTY Carousel contents not found!
