Identification of a Mycobacterium tuberculosis-specific gene marker for diagnosis of tuberculosis using semi-nested melt-MAMA qPCR (lprM-MAMA)
Tuberculosis (TB) is the deadliest of infectious diseases. TB diagnosis, based on sputum microscopy, culture, and nucleic acid amplification tests (NAATs) to identify its main causative agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), remains challenging. The current available NAATs, endorsed by World Healt...
