What is TB LAMP Qualitative DNA PCR Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex Test?
TB LAMP (Loop Mediated Isotherma Amplification) Qualitative DNA PCR Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex Test is a diagnostic test used to detect the presence of the bacteria Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a patient’s body. This test is based on the principle of amplifying the DNA of the bacteria through a process called Isothermal Amplification. The test is sensitive and specific, which means it can accurately detect the presence of the bacteria in a patient’s body.
Symptoms of Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis is a contagious bacterial infection that primarily affects the lungs. The symptoms of tuberculosis include:
- Coughing that lasts for more than three weeks

- Fever
- Night sweats
Diagnosis of Tuberculosis
Tuberculosis can be diagnosed through various tests such as:
- TB LAMP (Loop Mediated Isotherma Amplification) Qualitative DNA PCR Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex Test
- Chest X-ray
- Sputum culture
- Sputum smear microscopy
- Tuberculin skin test
- Blood tests

TB LAMP is a rapid qualitative DNA based loop mediated isothermal amplification polymerase chain reaction test which detects the nucleic acid of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in pulmonary samples. The test has been endorsed by WHO (WHO policy statement 2016) and also included in ICMR draft of essential test list .The test is used in routine diagnosis for rapid and specific diagnosis of Pulmonary tuberculosis in Indian settings. Combination of TB LAMP with TB culture increases the sensitivity.
