Quantification of bactericidal activity using the PATHFAST TB LAM Ag assay during the first 14 days of pulmonary tuberculosis treatment
Exciting new research co-authored by TASK scientist Prof. Andreas Diacon and Dr. Remous Ocloo, PhD explores the use of the PATHFAST TB LAM Ag assay. This rapid, culture-free diagnostic tool could revolutionise how we measure treatment response in tuberculosis. This newly published study shows strong correlations between LAM levels and bacterial load, with results available in under an hour, a promising breakthrough for TB care, especially in low-resource settings.
