Resazurin microtitre plate assay and Sensititre® MycoTB for detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistance in a high tuberculosis resistance setting
Background: Rapid diagnosis of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a challenge in low-income countries. Phenotypic drug susceptibility testing using Sensititre® MycoTB assay and the resazurin microtitre plate assay (REMA) are relatively new innovative methods to determine drug susceptibilit...
