Abstract:
We evaluated the BACTEC MGIT 960 system, which is a fully automated, noninvasive system for the growth and detection of mycobacteria with a capacity to incubate and continuously monitor 960 7-ml culture tubes. We studied 3,330 specimens, 2,210 respiratory and 1,120 nonrespiratory specimens, collected from 2,346 patients treated at six sites. Processed specimens were inoculated into the BACTEC MGIT 960 and BACTEC 460 TB systems, as well as onto Lowenstein-Jensen slants and Middlebrook 7H11/7H11 selective plates. From all culture systems, a total of 362 isolates of mycobacteria were recovered; t

Abstract:
ABSTRACTPyrazinamide (PZA) is a potent first-line agent for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB) with activity also against a significant part of drug-resistantMycobacterium tuberculosisstrains. Since PZA is active only at acid pH, testing for susceptibility to PZA is difficult and insufficiently reproducible. The recommended critical concentration for PZA susceptibility (MIC, 100 mg/liter) used in the Bactec systems (460 and MGIT 960) has not been critically evaluated against wild-type MIC distributions in clinical isolates ofMycobacterium tuberculosis. Using the Bactec MGIT 960 system, we dete

Abstract:
The technical limitations of common tests used for detecting pyrazinamide (PZA) resistance inMycobacterium tuberculosisisolates pose challenges for comprehensive and accurate descriptions of drug resistance in patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). In this study, a 606-bp fragment (comprising thepncAcoding region plus the promoter) was sequenced using Ion Torrent next-generation sequencing (NGS) to detect associated PZA resistance mutations in 88 recultured MDR-TB isolates from an archived series collected in 2001. These 88 isolates were previously Sanger sequenced, with 55 (

Abstract:
Background and Objectives: Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the most common infectious diseases in developing countries. The resistance of the causative agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, to two or more first-line anti-TB drugs results in multidrug-resistant (MDR) TB, posing a serious challenge to the control of TB worldwide. This study was designed to determine the changes in drug resistance over time in TB strains isolated from patients in all departments of Uludağ University Hospital in western Türkiye. Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 104,598 clinical samples sent to our labor

Abstract Objective.—To evaluate the performance of the BBL MGIT (Mycobacterial Growth Indicator Tube) AST SIRE system for the antimycobacterial susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to isoniazid (at a concentration equivalent to the lower concentration used for testing by the method of proportion), rifampin, ethambutol, and streptomycin. Design.—Thirty-one clinical isolates and 30 challenge strains provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) were tested by MGIT AST SIRE using 2 methods of inoculum preparation, and results were compared with those of the meth
