27 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of REBA Myco-ID(®) assay based on the principle of reverse blot hybridization assay (REBA) for the rapid detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), the differentiation of MTB from nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and the identification of NTM species in liquid cultures. METHODS AND RESULTS: A total of 274 mycobacterial liquid cultures that...
