Evaluation of nitrate reductase assay on Lowenstein–Jensen medium for drug susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Introduction: Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis is of increasing public health concern and a rapid and inexpensive drug susceptibility test is needed in resource limited settings. Aim: This study aims to compare the efficacy of drug susceptibility testing (DST) of Mycobacterium tuberculosis using nit...
