Sensitivity Optimisation of Tuberculosis Bioaerosol Sampling

2020-05-08

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb ) in patient-derived bioaerosol is a potential tool to measure source case infectiousness. However, current bioaerosol sampling approaches have reported low detection yields in sputum-positive TB cases. To increase the utility of bioaerosol sampling, we present advances in bioaerosol collection and Mtb identification that improve detection yields....
