Tuberculosis is one of the most world’s threatening infectious diseases caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) with high morbidity and mortality. Non-tuberculosis mycobacteria (NTM) infections, particularly with clinically relevant NTM species, are increasing in countries with low TB prevalence. Since therapeutic regimens are chosen according to the respective mycobacteria species, the reliable identification of TB and NTM is crucial for the treatment and prevention measures.
