The samples collecting were done from January to October 2019, at which time 90 suspected TB patients were investigated. The results revealed when comparing between RT-PCR test and microbiological test we have calculated sensitivity and specificity for each test. The RT-PCR test showed 100 percent for both sensitivity and specificity while the Microbiological tests showed 0.067 specificity and 0.933 sensitivity. These findings our results showed a high sensitivity and specificity of RT-PCR technique targeting BfrB gene for the detection of MTB by using specific probe.
