Ultra-sensitive urinary lipoarabinomannan (LAM) immunoassay for tuberculosis detection: a performance evaluationResearch in context
Summary: Background: The development of rapid non-sputum tests remains a global priority to accelerate Tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis and treatment initiation. The only WHO-recommended rapid diagnostic test (RDT), the Alere Determine TB Lipoarabinomannan Ag (AlereLAM) has suboptimal sensitivity. A lab...
