The development of aptamer-based probes for the detection of TB antigens ESAT-6.CFP-10 potential TB diagnostic tools
Includes abstract. === Includes bibliographical references. === Lack of point-of-care (PoC) diagnostic tools for TB hinders control of the disease, particularly in resource-limited, high HIV and TB prevalence countries. Therefore, there is a need for simple, rapid, accurate, and affordable PoC diagn...
