Direct Detection of Rifampin-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Respiratory Specimens Using Quantamatrix Multiplexed Assay Platform (QMAP) System: A Multicenter Study in Korea

Direct Detection of Rifampin-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Respiratory Specimens Using Quantamatrix Multiplexed Assay Platform (QMAP) System: A Multicenter Study in Korea

Rapid and accurate detection of rifampin-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is of primary importance for infection control and selection of anti-tuberculosis drugs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of a newly developed multiplexed, bead-based bioassay (Quantamatrix Multip...
