QuantiFERON TB Gold Plus
Last updated: Sep 20, 2026
What Is the QuantiFERON TB Gold Plus Test?
The QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus (QFT-Plus) test is a blood test that detects infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the bacterium that causes tuberculosis (TB).
TB remains a significant global health concern, and detecting an infection early allows treatment to start before it spreads to others. The sample is analysed in a laboratory and, unlike the older skin test, the result is not affected by a previous Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination.
The test is often required for employment, school enrolment and immigration checks, and it may also be included in a routine health screening.

- Efficiency: The QFT-Plus test enhances the testing process by necessitating only a single visit from the patient, thereby streamlining the entire procedure.
- Accuracy: Demonstrating a sensitivity of over 94% and a specificity greater than 97%, QFT-Plus delivers reliable results. Its performance is not affected by previous BCG vaccinations, which helps in reducing the likelihood of false positives.
