Brief Summary

Pneumonia is a common cause of morbidity and mortality. The diagnosis of pneumonia from the microbiology perspective has been challenging. Recent reports suggest the utility of nuclear acid detection for rapid and accurate diagnoses of these pathogens and their antibiotic-resistant spectrum. Extracted bacterial nucleic acid in sputum specimen will be identified by Nuclear acid detection assay kit with Microfluidic Pumping Chip and LAMP methods
