摘要

A critical obstacle to control tuberculosis (TB) causedby Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in the region isthe lack of early and accurate diagnosis. The currentlyavailable methods for TB diagnosis, such as microscopy,culture, and PCR are either time consuming or less suitablefor resource-limited rural settings. Previous studies haveattempted to validate the Loop Mediated IsothermalAmplification (LAMP) assay as an alternative assay forTB diagnosis, as it is a simple and less time consumingtechnique that is more suitable for developing countries[1-4]. However, success has been limited due to a recurrentnon-specific amplification of primers, leading to falsepositive results [5]. This paper describes the optimizationof the LAMP assay, to avoid this false positive detectionof MTB, and its efficacy as compared to the standardculture technique.
