Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To characterize rifampicin-resistant strains missed by the Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) 960 system but not by egg-based media in the UK and Ireland and to ascertain their prevalence. METHODS: All strains sent for second-line susceptibility testing were prospectively collected. Drug Susceptibility Testing was performed by Resistance Ratio (RR), Proportion Method (PM), MGIT 960 and MIC...
