Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Laboratory quality control (QC) is essential to assess the reliability of tuberculosis diagnostic testing. To provide safe QC reagents for the detection of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis, we generated antibiotic-resistant mycobacterial strains of attenuated virulence (M. bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)). METHODS: Seven mono-resistant BCG strains were developed by introducing...
