Tuberculosis is a common and potentially lethal infectious disease caused by various mycobacteria strains, usually M. tuberculosis in humans. Most infections in humans result in asymptomatic, latent infection and about one in ten latent infections eventually progresses to active disease. As samples, BAL and BAL fluid, liquor, sputum, urine, whole blood, pleural fluid, tissue, paraffin blocks and environmental samples can be used. For DNA extraction from synovial fluid Mukolysin reagent is necessary to use.
AmpliSens® MTC-FRT kit detects in qualitative format also other TB-causing mycobacteria: M. bovis, M. pinnipedii, M. africanum, M. microti and M. canetti. Detection channels: FAM/Green and JOE/HEX/Yellow.
AmpliSens® MTC-diff-FRT PCR kit detects and differentiates M. tuberculosis, M. bovis and M. bovis BCG strains. UDG is used in all kits for preventing contamination.
