Microbiology

At Orbit Diagnostic Centre, our microbiology laboratory in Kurnool is equipped with state-of-the-art technology to offer comprehensive diagnostic services. Microbiology is the study of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, which are often the root cause of various infectious diseases. Understanding these microorganisms is crucial for diagnosing, treating, and preventing infections, making microbiology an integral part of modern healthcare.

What is Microbiology?

Microbiology is the branch of science that focuses on the study of microscopic organisms. These tiny entities, invisible to the naked eye, play a significant role in human health. While some microorganisms are beneficial, many are pathogenic, causing infections and diseases. Diagnostic microbiology involves the identification of these harmful microorganisms to understand the nature of an infection and determine the most effective treatment.

Conditions Treated Using Microbiology

The advanced microbiology services at Orbit Diagnostic Centre are essential for diagnosing a wide range of conditions, including but not limited to:
  • Bacterial Infections: Diagnosing bacterial infections such as tuberculosis, pneumonia, urinary tract infections, and strep throat.
  • Viral Infections: Identification of viruses responsible for conditions like influenza, HIV, hepatitis, and COVID-19.
  • Fungal Infections: Detecting fungal infections such as candidiasis, aspergillosis, and ringworm.
  • Parasitic Infections: Identifying parasites that cause diseases like malaria, giardiasis, and toxoplasmosis.
  • Antibiotic Resistance: Testing for antibiotic-resistant bacteria to guide effective treatment plans.
  • Hospital-Acquired Infections: Monitoring and identifying infections acquired in healthcare settings to prevent outbreaks and ensure patient safety.
