Abstract

Tuberculosis is re-emerging as an important cause of morbidity and mortality in man. This article outlines current strategies available for the diagnosis of tuberculosis, and its applicability. Fluorescent staming, modified culture methods, antigen detection, ELISA based assays against various antigen preparation and recent advances in molecular techniques have been outlined. Present strategies being developed at Armed Forces Medical College for the early diagnosis, speciation, antibiotic sensitivity testing and epidemiologic testing have also been alluded to.
