Culture filtrate selectively promotes <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> growth from extremely low density inocula: implications for quantifying differentially culturable phenotypes
2025-10-15
Abstract excerpt
Differentially culturable (DC) Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb ) phenotypes reduce the sensitivity of sputum culture and may be associated with adverse treatment outcomes among tuberculosis patients. Accurately quantifying DC Mtb remains an important research objective, with current approaches tending to combine Most Probable Number (MPN) assays and culture filtrate (CF) supplementation. These assume that grow...
