Conjunctival Swab(Lt.) for C/S Price in Bangladesh

What is Conjunctival Swab(Lt.) for C/S?

A Conjunctival Swab (Lt.) for C/S (Culture and Sensitivity) is a test used to detect and identify bacterial infections in the left eye's conjunctiva.

During the test, a sample is collected from the conjunctival sac and sent to a laboratory for culture. The sample is cultured to grow any bacteria present, which are then identified.

Following identification, a sensitivity test is performed to determine which antibiotics are most effective against the specific bacteria. This test is typically used when there is a suspicion of bacterial conjunctivitis or other eye infections, helping to guide appropriate antibiotic treatment based on the cultured bacteria’s susceptibility.

What to expect & how to prepare

Conjunctival Swab(Lt.) for C/S is performed at a diagnostic centre or hospital lab. A trained technician collects the required sample (commonly a blood draw, urine sample, swab or an imaging scan, depending on the test) and sends it to the lab for analysis. Most routine tests take only a few minutes to sample, with reports typically ready the same day or within 24–48 hours.

• Fasting: some tests require 8–12 hours of fasting (water is usually allowed). Ask the centre when you book.
• Medication: tell the lab about any medicines or supplements you take, as some can affect results.
• Timing: certain hormone and biochemistry tests are best done in the morning — confirm the recommended time.
• Report: always have a registered doctor interpret your Conjunctival Swab(Lt.) for C/S result rather than self-diagnosing.
