Use of a phage-based assay for phenotypic detection of mycobacteria directly from sputum.

Journal of clinical microbiology - 1 Feb 2003

Park D J, Drobniewski F A, Meyer A, Wilson S M

Abstract excerpt

The phage amplified biologically assay is a new method for rapid and low-cost phenotypic determination of the drug sensitivities of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates and the detection of viable organisms in patient specimens. Infection of slowly growing mycobacteria with phage (phage D29) was followed by chemical virucide destruction of extracellular phage. Infected mycobacteria were mixed in culture with...
