Cowingene MTB and NTM Detection Kit (Liquid)
Cowingene MTB and NTM Detection Kit (Liquid)
The MTB/NTM Detection Kit is an in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of DNA from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and other bacteria included as nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in patient specimens. The test utilizes amplification of target DNA by the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) for the detection of MTB/NTM in a single analysis. The test specifically identifies MTB and NTM.
