ADA Ascitic Fluid Test For Abdominal Tuberculosis - Enzyme Marker for Tubercular Infection
Direct answer: The ADA ascitic fluid test measures adenosine deaminase enzyme activity in abdominal fluid to help detect tuberculosis-related peritonitis and chronic abdominal infections.
Adenosine deaminase (ADA) is an immune-response enzyme released during active infection. When excess fluid collects in the abdomen (ascites), raised ADA levels in ascitic fluid commonly indicate tubercular involvement. This test supports diagnosis when unexplained abdominal fluid, fever, or weight loss is investigated. Sample testing is available through our Home Collection Facility across Pune or at our Direct Walk-in Facility in Aundh and nearby areas.
Why is the ADA ascitic fluid test advised?
Direct answer: This test helps detect tuberculosis-related abdominal infection when ascitic fluid accumulation is present.
High ADA activity in ascitic fluid supports the diagnosis of tubercular peritonitis, especially when correlated with imaging and microbiology findings. Doctors may interpret results alongside culture or PCR tests. Learn more about infection-related diagnostics in our health articles, view sample guidance in test preparation guides, or compare diagnostic packages on comparison resources.
