Evaluation of Henes-PCR assay forMycobacteriumdetection in different clinical specimens from patients with or without tuberculosis-associated HIV infection

Abstract: The need for early diagnosis of tuberculosis, particularly in HIV‐infected patients, requires the development of diagnosis methods that have a high sensitivity and specificity, as does the nucleic acid‐based technology. With the purpose of improving the detection of mycobacterium in different clinical samples, we proposed and evaluated an assay based on nucleic acid‐amplification: heminested‐PCR (Henes‐PCR). The procedure was designed to identify Mycobacterium spp., M. tuberculosis complex (MTC), and M. avium … Show more
