qPCR detection of Mycobacterium leprae DNA in urine samples of leprosy patients using the Rlep gene target

13 Aug 2024

Abstract excerpt

Background Leprosy, a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, continues to pose a public health challenge in many parts of the world. Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and prevention of disabilities associated with the disease. Molecular techniques such as PCR have demonstrated great potential as a diagnostic tool for directly detecting M. leprae DNA in different...
