TL;DRAbstract

The TB/M card test was found to be comparatively economical (4 Indian Rupees or US$ 0.09/test), rapid (4 min) and seems fairly useful for mass testing of a variety of biological specimens (cerebrospinal, pleural and synovial fluids, serum, tissue biopsy extract) from patients with tuberculous meningitis, pulmonary TB and other extra-pulmonary TB in endemic countries.
