Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Tuberculosis (TB) is a deadly infectious disease, which kills millions of people every year. The causative pathogen, Mycobac-terium tuberculosis (MTB), is estimated to have infected up to a third of the world’s population; however, only approximately 10% of infected healthy individuals progress to active TB.
