Genetic Diversity of PCR-Positive, Culture-Negative and Culture-Positive Mycobacterium ulcerans Isolated from Buruli Ulcer Patients in Ghana.

, 2014
Culture of Mycobacterium ulcerans from Buruli ulcer patients has very low sensitivity. Thus confirmation of M. ulcerans infection is primarily based on PCR directed against IS2404.

Studies on in vitro human T cell reactivity to antigens of mycobacterium tuberculosis

, 2010
Studies on Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) antigens are important to improve immunodiagnostics and vaccine efficacy. A novel genome based strategy for antigen discovery is to relate what is highly expressed by bacilli in vivo or in vitro, to what is ...
