Description
The GenoType Mycobacterium CM („Common Mycobacteria“) allows the identification of M. tuberculosis complex and differentiation of 27 clinically relevant NTM species. Furthermore, a species-specific probe shows if members of the genus Mycobacterium are present. In this case, further differentiation with GenoType Mycobacterium AS is recommended.
Your benefits with GenoType Mycobacterium CM
- With one single test procedure numerous important mycobacteria species can be identified.
- By combining it with GenoType Mycobacterium AS, additional important NTM can be detected.
- Results are obtained within only 5 hrs.
- High sensitivity allows the identification of different mycobacteria species in one single sample and the detection of weak-positive cultures.
