Tuberculosis diagnosis using immunodominant, secreted antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]
Summary Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major public health concern in most low-income countries. Hence, rapid and sensitive TB diagnostics play an important role in detecting and preventing the disease. In addition to established diagnostic methods, several

Function and Potentials of M. tuberculosis Epitopes [PDF]
Study of the function of epitopes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens contributed significantly toward better understanding of the immunopathogenesis and to efforts for improving infection and disease control. Characterization of genetically permissively presented immunodominant epitopes has implications for the evolution of the host-parasite ...
