Abstract
A study on detection rates of acid-fast bacteria in urine by three sampling methods was performed on 898 cases randomly sampled from peoples who visited Dr. Chung's Health Lab. from January to December, 1983. Positive rate by 5 times sampling of motring urine was 7.0% and 12.5% higher than that of 24 hours sampling. Therefore, 5 times sampling of morning urine method was considered to be desirable method for the test of ambulatory cases.
