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:
We examined whether the BACTEC/ Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) System alone could supplant the use of a supplemental Lowenstein–Jensen (LJ) slant for routine recovery of M. tuberculosis from clinical specimens. A total of 392 specimens of sputum were included in the study, collected from 196 patients. Specimens were processed with standard N-acetyl- L- Cysteine (NALC-NaOH) method, then inoculated onto BACTEC MGIT 960 and onto LJ media. The recovery rates of M.tuberculosis were 100 % (256/256) with BACTEC MGIT 960 and 72.6%(186/256) with LJ. The rates of contamination for each of the

Background: Drug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) is an ongoing health threat, and the greatest challenge to adequate control of TB in many countries lies in the lack of proper laboratory drug-susceptibility test. The aim of this study was to evaluate the activity-based costs (ABC) of Kit SIRE Nitratase® (Kit SIRE) and compare its values with the conventional drug-susceptibility test. Methods: The ABC was calculated for three different approaches: Kit SIRE (clinical samples and cultures), proportion methods in Lowenstein Jensen (PM-LJ), and the Bactec™ MGIT™ 960 system based on Mycobacterial Resear

ABSTRACT A total of 120 mycobacterial isolates were recovered from 1,068 clinical specimens. Of these, 82.5% were in MGIT 960, 83.3% were in MB/BacT, 80% were in BACTEC 460, and 70% were on Löwenstein-Jensen medium. Mean times to detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( n = 96) were significantly shorter with MGIT 960 (12.6 days, P = 0.003) and BACTEC 460 (11.8 days, P < 0.001) than with MB/BacT (15.9 days). Although, MGIT 960 showed the lowest rate of recovery of M. kansasii genotype I (64.3%), the earliest growth was detected with this system (8.9 days). Low and similar rates of contami

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.
