Rapid detection of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis by multiplex allele-specific polymerase chain reaction
Belén ImperialeAngel CataldiNora Morcillo
Abstract
The MAS-PCR system allowed the simultaneous and rapid detection of approximately 80.0% of the drug-resistant clinical isolates. This method could be used as a rapid and simple screening tool to detect drug-resistant TB in clinical practice.
