Background Incipient tuberculosis, a progressive state of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection with an increased risk of developing into tuberculosis disease, remains poorly characterised. Animal models suggest an association of progressive infectio...

Detecting Closer to Care: Combining Phage and LAMP to Detect Tuberculosis, Bovine TB and Johne’s Disease (2024)
Journal Article
Shield, C. G., Bartlett, A. E. M., Haldar, P., & Swift, B. M. C. (in press). Detecting Closer to Care: Combining Phage and LAMP to Detect Tuberculosis, Bovine TB and Johne’s Disease. Applied Microbiology, 4(1), 341-353. https://doi.org/10.3390/applmicrobiol4010023

Mycobacterial diseases impact millions in the human and veterinary fields each year. Their diagnosis is long and laborious, often only sensitive in the late stages of disease. This has created an unmet need for new diagnostics that are effective in t...
