Determination of MICs for Mycobacterium avium-M. intracellulare complex in liquid medium by a colorimetric method.
We investigated the potential of a rapid colorimetric microassay based on the reduction of dimethylthiazol-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) for determining the growth of Mycobacterium avium-M. intracellulare complex (MAC) and MICs of clofazimine, resorcinomycin A, and the quinolone PD 127391 against MAC. The reduction of MTT was directly proportional to the number of viable bacteria. A compari...
متن کاملDetermination of ansamycin MICs for Mycobacterium avium complex in liquid medium by radiometric and conventional methods.
A radiometric method to determine the MIC of ansamycin (LM427) for Mycobacterium avium complex clinical isolates has been developed. It is based on a comparison of the conventional growth curve determination and the radiometric detection of growth (growth index) in the same liquid medium (7H12 broth). This new method requires less time and labor than does a conventional determination of MIC in ...
متن کاملInvestigation of whether CLSI broth microdilution method is applicable for MICs Determination of Enterococcus species.
The broth microdilution (BMD) method is an antimicrobial susceptibility testing method defined as a guideline by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). To date, the Japanese Veterinary Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (JVARM), has adopted the agar dilution (AD) method for monitoring antimicrobial resistances targeting isolates of Enterococcus spp., found in the fecal ...
متن کاملEvaluation of a rapid detection method of clarithromycin resistance genes in Mycobacterium avium complex isolates.
OBJECTIVES Clarithromycin is the key drug in the various treatment regimens of Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) diseases, and is the only drug for which drug susceptibility has been shown to correlate with clinical response in these diseases. A point mutation at either positions 2058 or 2059 of the 23S rRNA gene has been reported to occur in high-level clarithromycin-resistant isolates. In thi...
متن کاملDetonation nanodiamonds for rapid detection of clinical isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in broth culture media.
Routinely used molecular diagnostic methods for mycobacterium identification are expensive and time-consuming. To tackle this problem, we develop a method to streamline identification of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) in broth culture media by using detonation nanodiamonds (DNDs) as a platform to effectively capture the antigen secreted by MTBC which is cultured in BACTEC MGIT 960, f...
