Assessment of the BD MGIT TBc Identification Test for the Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex in a Network of Mycobacteriology Laboratories
Figure 1
Identification of M. tuberculosis complex isolates by the MGIT TBc ID assay from (a) positive MGIT culture and (b) Lowenstein-Jensen slants. In the Figure it is shown the result of the TBcID for the same isolate when grown in different culture media. The positive result is indicated by the development of two purple bands, one in the control zone (C) and another in the test zone (T).
