PANA qPCR⑩ TB/NTM Detection Kit is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification test to detect Mycobacteria tuberculosis(TB) and Nontuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) DNA in various specimens.

General diagnosis of active tuberculosis involves microbacterial cultures and acid-fast bacilli (AFB) smears of bodily fluids. Although a microbacterial culture is a standard method to diagnose active tuberculosis, it is difficult to discriminate TB from NTM due to similar colony morphologies. Culture methods for detecting mycobacteria in clinical speicmens require a long incubation period.

PANA qPCR⑩ TB/NTM Detection Kit is a PNA-based Multiplex Real-Time PCR diagnostic which can discriminate TB from NTM with high sensitivity and specificity rapidly, in 3 hours.
