Evaluation of FluoroType MTB for direct detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and GenoType MTBDRplus for determining rifampicin and isoniazid resistance
In recent years, several molecular methods have been introduced for diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), and detecting the drug resistance in clinical specimens. The FluoroType MTB (FT MTB) assay uses real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect MTBC in clinical specimens....
