Microbiology

Microbiology is the study of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites that can cause infections in the human body. It plays a crucial role in diagnosing infectious diseases and guiding effective treatment. With rising antibiotic resistance, accurate microbiological testing ensures the right choice of therapy. From simple urine infections to complex bloodstream infections, microbiology investigations help doctors identify the exact pathogen responsible. Early detection allows for timely and targeted treatment, improving patient recovery and preventing complications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is culture and sensitivity testing important?

It helps identify the exact infection-causing microorganism and determines which antibiotics will be most effective.

How long does it take to get microbiology test results?

Basic smear results may be available within hours, while culture reports usually take 24–72 hours depending on the organism.

Can these tests detect antibiotic resistance?

Yes, antibiotic sensitivity testing is done alongside cultures to check for resistance and guide effective treatment.
