Comparative Diagnostic Accuracy of Mean and Lowest Cycle Threshold Levels in Xpert MTB/RIF Assay and Molecular Epidemiology of Missing Probes In Rifampicin Resistant Tubercular Cases From A Tertiary Care Hospital
Background: The comparative diagnostic accuracy of mean and lowest Ct values needs to be evaluated for the assessment of mycobacterial burden in tubercular cases. Mutation in any codon of 81 base-pair core regions prevents the hybridization of one or more of five overlapping Probes A-Ein Xpert MTB/R...
