Sensititre MycoTB Plate Compared to Bactec MGIT 960 for First- and Second-Line Antituberculosis Drug Susceptibility Testing in Tanzania: a Call To Operationalize MICs
Abstract
<jats:title>ABSTRACT</jats:title><jats:p>MIC testing for<jats:named-content xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" content-type="genus-species" xlink:type="simple">Mycobacterium tuberculosis</jats:named-content>is now commercially available. Drug susceptibility testing by the MycoTB MIC plate has not been directly compared to that by the Bactec MGIT 960. We describe a case of extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis (XDR-TB) in Tanzania where initial MIC testing may have prevented acquired resistance. From testing on archived isolates, the accuracy with the MycoTB plate was >90% for important first- and second-line drugs compared to that with the MGIT 960, and clinically useful quantitative interpretation was also provided.</jats:p>
