Abstract

Munish Puri developed and validated in-house molecular based tools to identify and characterise the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) from rural PNG. He found that TaqMan based assays could be used to identify the Mtb and that high resolution melt may play a role in screening for drug resistance mutations. These outcomes could be further developed to provide cost effective approaches to lab-based diagnosis of TB in resource poor settings.
