ABSTRACT

The tuberculosis is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This disease has re-emerged as a worldwide health problem and it’s responsible for a higher number of deaths than any other single bacterial pathogen. To establish infection, M. tuberculosis most first survive its encounter with alveolar macrophages and then gain access to the lymphatics or the bloodstream. The cell mediated immunity and delayed-type hypersensitivity immunologyc processes produced by the host play key roles in the pathogenesis of tuberculosis. The isolation of M. tuberculosis is the definitive method for confirming the diagnosis of tuberculosis. In recent years, quick tests for tuberculosis based on nucleic acid amplification techniques have been developed. And the treatment of tuberculosis must be continued, long and associated.
