Differential Molecular Diagnosis of Tuberculosis and Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria
The MTBC-NTM Real-Time PCR Kit enables qualitative detection of Mycobacterium spp. DNA, the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), and the Mycobacterium tuberculosis species using real-time multiplex PCR, from purified DNA of mycobacterial cultures and human pulmonary and extrapulmonary clinical samples.

MTBC-NTM Real-Time PCR Kit
Kit Information:
The MTBC-NTM REAL-TIME PCR kit is a multiplex in vitro diagnostic kit that allows for the simultaneous detection of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis species and the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), while also detecting other non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species that cause tuberculosis-like pulmonary diseases.
MTBC-NTM
Rapid molecular diagnosis for tuberculosis and non-tuberculous mycobacteria
Tuberculosis remains an infectious disease with a high clinical and public health impact. Early identification of mycobacterial DNA is crucial for initiating appropriate treatment, implementing isolation measures, and reducing the risk of transmission.
The MTBC-NTM Real-Time PCR Kit is a multiplex real-time PCR assay that detects and differentiates Mycobacterium spp., the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, and the Mycobacterium tuberculosis species. The kit incorporates a human β-globin internal control to verify the quality of the starting material and correct amplification.
With an analytical sensitivity of 5 copies/reaction, high analytical specificity with no cross-reactions with the respiratory microorganisms evaluated, and compatibility with validated Real-Time PCR thermocyclers, it offers a precise, sensitive, and reproducible solution for the molecular diagnosis of mycobacteria.
