Abstract excerpt

Tubercular meningitis (TBM) is a serious form of tuberculosis (TB). The diagnosis of TBM & susceptibility/resistance is difficult as TB MGIT culture lacks sensitivity & timeliness. Timely and accurate diagnosis of the TBM is the need of the hour for initiation of appropriate therapy. We have exploited pyrosequencing to detect TB and associated Multi/extensively drug resistant (MDR/ XDR-TB) directly from...
