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...
