(mb GeneXpert) TEST MTB/RIF-ULTRA, cartridge

CAUTION

This test (= 1 cartridge) is worded and codified by unit to make the order easier, but it is always packaged in kit of 50.

Definition

The Xpert MTB/RIF-Ultra assay runs on the GeneXpert System.

It is a cartridge-based, semiquantitative diagnostic test that can detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) complex and resistance to rifampicin (RIF).

The Xpert® MTB/RIF-Ultra assay purifies, concentrates, amplifies (by real-time PCR) and identifies targeted nucleic acid sequences in the genome of M. tuberculosis complex bacteria, and provides results from unprocessed sputum samples in less than 80 minutes, with minimal biohazard and limited technical training required to operate.
