Reliable :Directly observe the target bacilli
Rapid :Interpret the result within 2 hours
Effective: Equal to the culture detective rate
Affordable :Much more economic than molecular test
Principle: An originality membrane is designed as the bottom of a vessel. After liquefy the sample, upload it to the vessel in huge volume ( more than 1ml) to collect the target bacilli as much as possible. All the target bacilli will be blocked on the membrane with incredible concentration. Stain the membrane directly in the vessel by equipment, then take off the membrane and observe it through a microscopy.
Scenarios:
Peripheral lab with semi-automatic equipment
Central lab with Fully-automatic equipment
For all microscopy test site use to increase the detective rate
For universal screening use to find TB earlier
