Up to 86.7% and 96.7% of MDR-TB could be accurately detected by RIF-RD and INH-RD, emphasizing its usefulness as a low unit price assay for rapid screening of MDR-TB, with confirmation of INH resistance in low and middle-income countries. The MDR-TB genotypes provided will be beneficial for TB control and the development of drug-resistant TB diagnostic technology in the future.
