Abstract

Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) is a recently developed molecular method that has been successfully implemented in the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in clinical specimens. LAMP has several advantages, such as rapidity, high sensitivity, ease of application and cost-effectiveness. As a result, it is anticipated that its use for the detection of M. tuberculosis is likely to become widespread, especially in low-resource countries. The present review aimed to present this method and all of the available information on its implementation in the detection of M. tuberculosis in clinical specimens.
