Detection of differentially culturable tubercle bacteria in sputum using mycobacterial culture filtrates
Abstract Rapid detection of tuberculosis (TB) infection is paramount to curb further transmission. The gold standard for this remains mycobacterial culture, however emerging evidence confirms the presence of differentially culturable tubercle bacteria (DCTB) in clinical specimens. These bacteria do...
