Description
DiaPlexC™ M.Avium/M.Intracellulare Detection Kit
Multiplex PCR based assay system for simultaneous detection of M. avium and M. intracellulare among NTM complex
Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare complex (MAC) is the atypical mycobacterium most commonly associated with human disease. MAC is primarily a pulmonary pathogen that affects individuals whose immune systems have been compromised (e.g. from AIDS, hairy cell leukemia, immunosuppressive chemotherapy). In this clinical setting, MAC has been associated with osteomyelitis, tenosynovitis and synovitis. MAC comprises two genetically distinct but Difficult to discriminate species. M. avium predominates (87 % - 98 %) in AIDS patients with no anti-retroviral therapy and M. intracellulare is more frequent among non-AIDS patients.
