A Phenotypic Characterization of Two Isolates of a Multidrug-Resistant Outbreak Strain of <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> with Opposite Epidemiological Fitness

<div><i>In vitro</i> growth of Mp and 410 strains at low pH. The assessed <i>M. tuberculosis</i> strains were grown in Middlebrook 7H9 supplemented with 0.5% glycerol, 0.5% bovine albumin, 0.4% glucose, and 0.05% Tween 80 at pH 5.7. The bacterial growth was determined by OD600<sub>nm</sub> measurements. One experiment of three with similar results is shown in the figure.</div>
