Chip-based Real Time PCR Test for Rifampicin Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis
Intended Use:
Detection of Rifampicin resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Truenat MTB/MTB Plus positive human specimen and aids in the diagnosis of MDR-TB. This test detects the presence of major mutations (SNPs) in the MTB genome that are known to cause resistance to rifampicin
TARGET SELECTION: RRDR region of the rpoB gene and the codon region coverage is MTB Codon Numbering [H37Rv]
LIMIT OF DETECTION: 200 cells/ml of sputum
