Intracellular Cytokine Flow Cytometry to Differentiate between Active and Latent Tuberculosis through Assessment of Tuberculosis-specific Cytokines

Intracellular Cytokine Flow Cytometry to Differentiate between Active and Latent Tuberculosis through Assessment of Tuberculosis-specific Cytokines

BACKGROUND: Immune assays, like QuantiFeron-TB Gold (QFT), are available for the diagnosis of latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). Intracellular cytokine flow cytometry (ICCFC) can be used to assess T-cell immune responses specific to tuberculosis (TB). We studied the role of ICCFC in differentiati...
