Molecular Assays for Determining Mycobacterium leprae Viability in Tissues of Experimentally Infected Mice

BACKGROUND: The inability of Mycobacterium leprae to grow on axenic media has necessitated specialized techniques in order to determine viability of this organism. The purpose of this study was to develop a simple and sensitive molecular assay for determining M. leprae viability directly from infect...
