![Page 20: Small Intestine TB (Tuberculosis)](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051710/5a649bda7f8b9a57568b4d71/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Adenosine Deaminase (ADA)
Converts adenosine to inosine
• ADA increased due to stimulation of T-cells by
mycobacterial Ag
• Serum ADA > 54U/L
• Ascitic fluid ADA > 33U/L
• Ascitic fluid to serum ADA ratio > 0.985
• Coinfection with HIV normal or low ADA
