Abstract excerpt

Early detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in clinical specimens, its susceptibility to anti-TB drugs and disruption of infection transmission to new hosts are essential components for global tuberculosis (TB) control efforts. This study investigated major Mtb genotypes circulating in Kuwait and evaluated the performance of REBA MTB-MDR (REBA) test in comparison to GenoType MTBDRplus (gMTBDR+) assay for...
