Transparency Market Research Reports incorporated a definite business overview and investigation inclines on “Tuberculosis Testing Market”. This report likewise incorporates more illumination about fundamental review of the business including definitions, requisitions and worldwide business sector industry structure. Tuberculosis (TB) is an infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. TB typically infects lungs (Pulmonary tuberculosis) but may also infect other parts of body (Extrapulmonary tuberculosis) such as central nervous system, lymphatic system and genitourinary system. Symptoms of the disease are fever, night sweat, chronic cough, blood-tinged sputum.

Various Multi Drug Resistant (MDR) forms of the Mycobacterium have been identified which make the treatment more difficult as the routine drugs cannot be used to treat the disease. Identification of the disease in early stages helps in effective treatment hence various rapid identification tests are performed for diagnosis. TB tests are performed in hospitals as well as in research laboratories which constitute a large market across the globe.

Tuberculosis testing market can be segmented as follows-
Rapid testing methods
ELISPOT (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent spot)
MODS (Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility)
PCR method(Polymerase Chain Reaction)
Fluorescence staining
Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA)
Cassette test
Routine tests
Skin testing (Mantaux Test)
Most of the immunological tests such as skin test, ELISPOT and IGRA can give false positive tests because of the prior exposure to the causative agent or vaccination. Due to this drawback, there is a need for quick and confirmed identification...
