A rapid, accurate, and low-cost method for detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis and its drug-resistant genes in pulmonary tuberculosis: Applications of MassARRAY DNA mass spectrometry

Abstract excerpt

Introduction Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) identification and drug resistance diagnosis are very important for treatment of drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB). Therefore, high throughput, accurate and low-cost molecular detection techniques are urgently needed. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical application value of MassARRAY in tuberculosis diagnosis and drug resistance screening. Methods The limit of...
