Acid-fast bacilli (AFB) are a group of bacteria that have a unique cell wall structure, making them resistant to the decolorization process during certain staining techniques. This property allows them to retain the primary stain, such as carbol fuchsin, even after being exposed to acid-alcohol decolorization. The most well-known acid-fast bacillus is Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis. Other acid-fast bacteria include Mycobacterium leprae (causing leprosy) and some species of Nocardia and Rhodococcus. The acid-fast staining technique, such as the Ziehl-Neelsen or the Kinyoun method, is commonly used to identify and diagnose these bacteria.
