Abstract:
The laboratory diagnosis of tuberculosis usually relies on culture-based isolation of the causativeMycobacterium tuberculosisbacteria. We developed and evaluated the performance of MOD9, a new blood-free derivative of the MOD4 solid medium on which we previously reported for the isolation and culture of mycobacteria. First, inoculation of Lowenstein-Jensen medium with 21M. tuberculosisisolates at 105, 103, and 10 CFU yielded colonies in 5.7 ± 1.5 days, 7.6 ± 0.8 days, and 10.8 ± 1.7 days versus 1.5 ± 0.4 days, 3.5 ± 0.6 days, and 4.9 ± 1 days in MOD9 (P< 0.05, Student'sttest).

BACKGROUND: Lymphadenitis is common in HIV-positive patients. Diagnosis of the infections associated with this condition is complex, particularly in the case of tuberculosis. Rapid and specific detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) is fundamental in ensuring adequate treatment. In addition, frequent causes of lymphadenitis such as those associated with lymphoma and histoplasmosis, among others, must be eliminated as possible causes. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the accuracy of polymerase chain reaction as a tool for the diagnosis of lymphadenitis resulting from M. tuberculosis.
