flag India approves two new homegrown TB tests for faster, cheaper, easier diagnosis.

flag India’s ICMR has approved two new homegrown TB diagnostics by Huwel Lifesciences: the Quantiplus MTB FAST kit, an open-system RT-PCR test compatible with standard lab machines that can process 96 samples at once and cut costs by up to 20%, and the UniAMP MTB Test Card, which uses tongue swabs instead of sputum for easier, non-invasive testing—especially for children and elderly patients. flag These tools expand access to rapid, accurate TB detection, support community and doorstep screening, and strengthen India’s push to eliminate TB.
