Stereocontrolled synthesis of a thiolated mycolic acid for development of novel TB diagnostics
The current global tuberculosis epidemic has shown the need to urgently replace the aged anti-TB armamentarium. The search for a fast, accurate and reliable diagnosis of active TB has emerged as the spearhead in efforts to defeat the scourge. Traditional diagnostics that have existed for more than...
