Development of Automated Molecular Diagnostic Platform for Tuberculosis Diagnosis (New Assay TB)

It is intended for patients who have been admitted to the outpatient or emergency room or are hospitalized For patients who diagnose pulmonary tuberculosis or extrapulmonary tuberculosis using Xpert TB/RIF, additionally, diagnose pulmonary tuberculosis or extrapulmonary tuberculosis using a new diagnostic method, and check the test results. Check whether the tuberculosis bacteria were actually cultured in the sample in the future, and compare the sensitivity and specificity in each test. Validation in animal model In an animal model (rat) with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease that shows similar characteristics to tuberculosis destructive lung, It will be investigated whether the HI method can be validated by separating and concentrating microbiome for various pathogens including Mycobacterium tuberculosis using HI method. Confirm.
