Hi-PCR® Mycobacterium tuberculosis SYBr PCR Kit

The resurgence of TB since the mid-1980s, primarily due to both the increased incidence of immunocompromised patients with AIDS, and the emergence of MDR-strains of M. tuberculosis has increased the need for rapid diagnosis of this disease. Rapid detection of active TB infection is critical for the prompt detection of new cases, effective patient management and implementation of infection control measures, and to begin appropriate anti-mycobacterial therapy. The Hi-PCR® Mycobacterium tuberculosis SYBr PCR Kit is designed to detect the specific gene regions of IS6110 of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) & is recommended for sensitive detection of M. tuberculosis in clinical samples.
