  • Title: Potential for use of the Seegene Anyplex MTB/NTM real-time detection assay in a regional reference laboratory.
    Author: Perry MD, White PL, Ruddy M.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2014 May; 52(5):1708-10. PubMed ID: 24554748.
    Abstract:
    Requests for direct molecular diagnosis of mycobacterial disease are increasingly warranted. The Anyplex MTB/NTM assay demonstrates sensitivities, specificities, and positive and negative predictive values of 1.00, 0.96, 0.93, and 1.00 for Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) and 1.00, 0.97, 0.75, and 1.00 for nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) detection, respectively, making it a suitable screening test for mycobacterial detection.
