Rapid prediction of BACTEC MGIT 960 culture results by COBAS amplicor mycobacterium polymerase chain reaction detection.

Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease - 1 May 2009

Aono Akio, Azuma Yuka, Mitarai Satoshi, Ogata Hideo

Abstract excerpt

A combination of a rapid culture system, BACTEC MGIT 960 (MGIT), and a commercial polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was evaluated to predict final culture results within 2 weeks. A total of 79 sputum specimens were collected from 59 tuberculosis (TB) patients before anti-TB chemotherapy. Among the 22 specimens that were smear negative and culture positive, the...
