    Actionable NTM Answers in Less Than 3 Days

    NTM-Seq delivers rapid species-level identification and antimicrobial resistance insight direct from respiratory samples.

    NTM Pulmonary Disease Is Rising. Current Diagnostics Haven't Kept Up.

    The incidence of NTM pulmonary disease is increasing worldwide, yet diagnosis remains slow and imprecise. Traditional culture-based methods can take weeks to return results, and conventional identification often fails to distinguish between species — a critical gap when treatment regimens differ significantly between organisms like M. abscessus and M. avium complex.

    Weeks to Wait
    Culture-based NTM identification is slow, delaying diagnosis and treatment
    Rising Incidence
    NTM pulmonary disease is increasing worldwide, especially in developed nations
    Critical Gap
    Species-level ID is essential — treatment differs significantly between organisms
