Correlation of different phenotypic drug susceptibility testing methods for four fluoroquinolones inMycobacterium tuberculosis
6 Feb 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Molecular resistance testing fails to explain all fluoroquinolone resistance, with a continued need for a suitable rapid phenotypic drug susceptibility testing method. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the optimal method for phenotypic fluoroquinolone susceptibility testing. METHODS: Using Löwenstein-Jensen medium, Middlebrook 7H11 agar, BACTEC-MGIT 960 and the resazurin microtitre plate assay, we determined...
