Competing Interests

All authors are employed by FIND, the global alliance for diagnostics. FIND is a not-for-profit foundation that supports the evaluation of publicly prioritized tuberculosis assays and the implementation of WHO-approved (guidance and prequalification) assays using donor grants. FIND has product evaluation agreements with several private sector companies that design diagnostics for tuberculosis and other diseases. These agreements strictly define FIND’s independence and neutrality with regard to these private sector companies.
