Over 10 million people contract tuberculosis (TB) every year. Although most people can be cured if they receive the early and correct antibiotic treatment, TB still remains a major cause of death in the world. One of the reasons for such high mortality is the lack of rapid diagnostic test that can provide reliable results at the entry-level clinics or primary health centres. Poor diagnosis leads to ineffective treatment, which results in improper cure.
EMPE Diagnostics is developing a combinatorial DNA-test in a simplified manner to identify TB causing bacteria and the resistant genes. EMPE's test kits can produce visual results in 3 hours, directly from patients' samples, even at low/medium resource clinics because it does not require any expensive instruments. EMPE could help millions of people around the world, who are at risk of developing the deadly TB infections, by aiding correct diagnosis to help the clinicians to choose necessary and effective antibiotics.
