Add to ORKGPerformance evaluation of three commercial molecular assays for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from clinical specimens in a high TB-HIV-burden setting M. M. Z. Matabane1,2, F. Ismail1,2*, K. A. Strydom1,2, O. Onwuegbuna2, S. V. Omar3 and N. Ismail1,3 Background: A major challenge faced by countries with a high burden of tuberculosis (TB) is early detection especially in individuals with paucibacillary disease which is common in HIV endemic settings. Remarkable efforts have been made globally to accelerate the development and expansion of new diagnostic technologies that allow better and earlier diagnosis of active tuberculosis particularly directly from clinical specimens with a few commercial options available. These include G...
