Development of a rapid detection method for the macrolide resistance gene in Mycobacterium avium using the amplification refractory mutation system–loop-mediated isothermal amplification method

ABSTRACTMacrolide antibiotics such as clarithromycin (CLR) and azithromycin are the key drugs used in multidrug therapy for Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) diseases.
