Tuberculosis (TB) remains as a major public health issue in developing countries. Accurate detection is essential for the proper management of patients with active disease. Here, we present a simple DNAzol-LAMP (loop-mediated isothermal amplification) procedure for the detection of in sputum specimens. Twenty smear-positive sputum samples were analyzed as follows: (i) Genetic material was extracted by a standard DNAzol protocol, and (ii) mycobacterial DNA was detected by a typical TB-specific loop-mediated isothermal amplification method. Results and diagnostic test performance attests to the suitability of the proposed procedure.
结核病在发展中国家仍是一个主要的公共卫生问题。准确检测对于活动性疾病患者的妥善管理至关重要。在此,我们提出一种简单的DNAzol-环介导等温扩增(LAMP)程序用于检测痰标本中的[此处原文缺失相关检测对象]。对20份涂片阳性痰标本进行如下分析:(i)通过标准DNAzol方案提取遗传物质,以及(ii)采用典型的结核特异性环介导等温扩增方法检测分枝杆菌DNA。结果及诊断测试性能证明了所提出程序的适用性。
