A swab sample is examined under a microscope to detect bacteria or inflammatory cells, followed by culture to identify the specific organism causing infection. Sensitivity testing is then performed to determine which antibiotics are most effective against the identified pathogen. This test supports accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment of nasal infections, helping to improve clinical outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Get Tested South Africa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47948076875931,"sku":null,"price":870.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0014\/8586\/5021\/files\/Gemini_Generated_Image_8yxjgh8yxjgh8yxj.png?v=1770208961","url":"https:\/\/www.get-tested.co.za\/products\/nasal-swab-mc-s-test","provider":"Get Tested South Africa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
