Advancements in Sweat Testing Techniques for Cystic Fibrosis: From Classical to Novel Methods

2025-08-25

Abstract excerpt

Sweat testing remains a fundamental diagnostic tool for cystic fibrosis (CF), with the classic sweat chloride test (SCT) established as the gold standard since 1959. Despite its wide use, SCT presents challenges including limited accessibility in low- and middle-income countries, difficulties in obtaining adequate sweat samples, especially from infants, and ambiguous borderline results that require further functio...
