First discovered in 1882 by Robert Koch, M. tuberculosis has an unusual, waxy coating on the cell surface (primarily mycolic acid), which makes the cells impervious to Gram staining so acid-fast detection techniques are used instead. The physiology of M. tuberculosis is highly aerobic and requires high levels of oxygen. Primarily a pathogen of the mammalian respiratory system, MTB infects the lungs. The most frequently used diagnostic methods for TB are the tuberculin skin test, acid-fast stain, and chest radiographs;Description:Mouse Anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis RV2623 Monoclonal Antibody;Host Species:Mouse;Species Reactivity:Bacteria;Clone#:F4;Isotype:IgG2a;Application:ELISA, WB;Storage:Store antibody products at 2-8°C.
