Detection of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> in pediatric stool samples using TruTip technology

2019-03-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Rapid and accurate diagnosis of childhood tuberculosis (TB) is challenging because children are often unable to produce the sputum sample required for conventional tests. Stool is an alternative sample type that is easy to collect from children, and studies investigating the use of stool for molecular detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) have led to promising results. However, tests...
