New synthetic lipid antigens for rapid serological diagnosis of tuberculosis
BACKGROUND: During pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) antibodies are generated to trehalose esters of mycolic acids which are cell wall lipids of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Attempts have been made to use these complex natural mixtures in serological tests for PTB diagnosis. AIM: The aim of this wor...
