ABSTRACT
Attempts were made to enhance the sensitivity of immuno-PCR assay based on the detection of cocktail of mycobacterial antigen 85B (Rv1886c), ESAT-6 (Rv3875) and cord factor (trehalose 6,6'-dimycolate) in pulmonary and extrapulmonary TB patients. Detection of Ag85B was found to be superior to the detection of cocktail in TB patients.
