Establishment of real-time rt-pcr assay for detection of mrna mycobacterium tuberculosis
Current laboratory methods for monitoring the response to therapy for tuberculosis (TB) rely on mycobacterial culture. Their clinical usefulness is therefore limited by the slow growth rate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Rapid methods to reliably quantify the response to anti-TB drugs are desirable....

Current laboratory methods for monitoring the response to therapy for tuberculosis (TB) rely on mycobacterial culture. Their clinical usefulness is therefore limited by the slow growth rate of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Rapid methods to reliably quantify the response to anti-TB drugs are desirable.
We have developed a Real-time RT-PCR assay that uses hydrolysis probes to target mRNA for α antigen.
Initially, this Real-time RT-PCR protocol has been used, combined with standard Ziehl–Neelsen staining technique and Real-time PCR based on16SrRNA gene and IS6110 as targets, on 30 samples obtained from patients who are in the process of treatment.
There are 8 sputum samples showing completely negative results for all three methods. This Real-time RT-PCR assay found 9 out of 22 positive samples detected by Real-time PCR.
