Factors Associated with Missed Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Automated BACTEC MGIT 960 System
Despite the demonstration of excellent performance, mycobacterial growth in BACTEC MGIT 960 can go undetected. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of "false-negative" culture sample in Beijing and the potential factors associated with the detection failures by MGIT 960. Of the 577 sputum samples tested, 141 (24.4%) were culture-positive for mycobacteria, of which 133 (94.3%)...
متن کاملComparison of BACTEC MGIT 960 system and BACTEC 460 TB system for growth and detection of Mycobacteria from clinical specimens.
This study was carried out to compare the performance of BACTEC MGIT 960 with the BACTEC 460 TB for growth and detection of Mycobacteria from human clinical specimens. The BACTEC MGIT 960 instrument is a fully automated system that utilizes MGIT tubes containing an oxygen sensor embedded in silicon at the bottom and filled with 7 mL of modified Middlebrook 7H9 broth. Identical samples were inoc...
متن کاملUnreliable detection of Mycobacterium xenopi by the nonradiometric Bactec MGIT 960 culture system.
From June 2006 to December 2007, 3,648 clinical specimens consecutively received for mycobacterial culture were investigated. Each processed sample was inoculated into Bactec MGIT 960 liquid medium and a Löwenstein-Jensen slant. Tubes that were flagged as positive by the instrument as well as those determined to be negative after 42 days of incubation were removed, visually inspected for growth...
متن کاملGrowth detection failures by the nonradiometric Bactec MGIT 960 mycobacterial culture system.
Mycobacterial growth in liquid culture can go undetected by automated, nonradiometric growth detection systems. In our laboratory, instrument-negative tubes from the Bactec MGIT 960 system are inspected visually for clumps suggestive of mycobacterial growth, which (if present) are examined by acid-fast smear analysis. A 3-year review demonstrated that ∼1% of instrument-negative MGIT cultures co...
متن کاملMeta-analysis of BACTEC MGIT 960 and BACTEC 460 TB, with or without solid media, for detection of mycobacteria.
In a meta-analysis of 10 studies, the BACTEC 960/MGIT and BACTEC 460 systems showed a sensitivity and specificity in detecting mycobacteria (1,381 strains from 14,745 clinical specimens) of 81.5 and 99.6% and 85.8 and 99.9%, respectively. Combined with solid media, the sensitivity of the two systems increased to 87.7 and 89.7%, respectively.
