MTB-TEST
MTB-TEST
The kit is designed for detection of the tuberculosis and non-tuberculosis complex mycobacteria and their differentiation
Advantages
- One test tube per patient.
- Detection of the tuberculosis complex mycobacteria using two targets simultaneously, both targets are recorded via one channel (FAM).
- The IC sample is included.
- Fast result.
- The risk of contamination is reduced due to the inclusion of uracil-DNA-glycosylase (UDG) and 2'-deoxyuridine-5'-triphosphate (dUTP) in the reaction mix.
