Development and validation of a multiplex real-time qPCR assay using GMP-grade reagents for leprosy diagnosis

2021-10-05

Abstract excerpt

Leprosy is a chronic dermato-neurological disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae , an obligate intracellular bacterium. Timely detection is a challenge in leprosy diagnosis, relying on clinical examination and trained health professionals. Furthermore, adequate care and transmission control depend on early and reliable pathogen detection. Here, we describe a qPCR test for routine diagnosis of leprosy-suspected pat...
