The Mycobacteria Identification Kit (MMCA) (Abbreviation: Mycobacteria Identification Kit) is an in vitro diagnostic reagent used for mycobacteria identification from cultured mycobacteria specimens or sputum samples. The kit employs PCR and multicolor melting curve analysis (MMCA) methods, and targets the intergenic transcribed spacer (ITS) region between the 16S rRNA and 23S rRNA genes to efficiently detect 51 mycobacteria (Annex table 1), among which, 19 clinically relevant mycobacteria can be identified to the species level.
