Diagnostic potential of multi‐targeted LAMP (loop‐mediated isothermal amplification) for osteoarticular tuberculosis
13 May 2016
Abstract excerpt
Delay in diagnosing osteoarticular tuberculosis (OATB) contributes significantly to morbidity by causing disfiguration and neurological sequelae. The delay caused by conventional culture and the expertise and expense involved in other nucleic acid based tests, make LAMP (loop-mediated isothermal amplification) assay a favorable middle path. We evaluated LAMP assay using IS6110 and MPB64 for rapid diagnosis of...
