The MTB-NTM Multiplex Real-Time PCR Kit is a CE-IVD molecular diagnostic assay designed for qualitative detection and differentiation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) in clinical samples.
This assay enables rapid and accurate identification of mycobacterial infections, supporting early diagnosis, appropriate therapy selection, and improved patient management through a multiplex real-time PCR workflow.
The MTB-NTM Multiplex Real-Time PCR Kit is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test based on advanced real-time PCR technology for simultaneous detection of MTB and NTM DNA directly from clinical specimens.
The assay is designed to overcome diagnostic challenges where conventional smear microscopy cannot differentiate MTB from NTM infections.
This multiplex design ensures reliable differentiation between tuberculosis and non-tuberculous mycobacterial disease.
Both MTB and NTM are acid-fast bacilli that cause pulmonary and extrapulmonary infections, but they differ significantly in treatment and clinical management.
Key diagnostic challenges:
Rapid molecular differentiation enables:
The kit is ideal for clinical molecular laboratories performing:
Multiplex assay differentiates tuberculosis from non-tuberculous mycobacterial infections in a single test.
Dual MTB targets + dual NTM targets improve sensitivity and specificity.
MTB, NTM and IC detected differentially
All targets detected in one reaction, simplifying workflow.
Supports faster clinical decision-making vs culture methods.
Validated for use with:
The assay provides clear qualitative reporting, including:
Designed for automated workflow including extraction and amplification.
