    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To establish a multiplex polymerase chain reaction (mPCR) method with high sensitivity and specificity for rapid detection of common nontuberculous mycobacterium(NTM) infection in the hand. METHODS: Application of primer design software to the mycobacterium marinum, mycobacterium avium, mycobacterium kansasii and mycobacterium fortuitum, the specific gene sequences were used to design construction of multiplex PCR and detection of DNA from the non tuberculous mycobacterial standard strains of each bacterium of single PCR and multiplex DNA accuracy and sequence contrast evaluation to verify the specificity of multiple PCR primers.26 clinical specimens were identified by this method. RESULTS: Detection of 26 cases of clinical samples, positive detection of more than 7/8, the identification time is shorter than the traditional method. CONCLUSION: The research method can be rapid, specific, sensitive and effective to detect the common hand of mycobacterium tuberculosis infection, can be used for clinical identification of mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.
