چکیده
Recovery of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from sputa treated with cetyl-pyridinium chloride (CPC) and stored for 20 +/- 9 days was significantly higher than that from sputa that were untreated and processed by the N-acetyl-L-cisteine-NaOH method. Addition of CPC is useful for isolation of M. tuberculosis from sputa subjected to long-term storage received from remote areas of the world.

A total of 1,047 sputum samples from pulmonary tuberculosis patients was collected in cetyl pyridinium chloride-sodium chloride solution. Each sample was divided into two parts and randomly allocated for the isolation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, with one part to be processed by the standard method and the other by a modified method. In the standard method, the samples were processed by using...
