Özet

Aims: The present meta-analysis aims to assess the evidence regarding the diagnostic accuracy and performance characteristics of the colorimetric redox indicator (CRI) assay with a special emphasis on the use of the resazurin microtiter assay (REMA) for determination of primary anti-tuberculosis drug resistance.
