Mycobacterial Culture and Drug Sensitivity

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The BACTEC MGIT 960 culture system (Becton, Dickinson and Company, America) was used for mycobacterial culture. For positive results, strain identification was performed using an Mpb64 monoclonal antibody(Hangzhou Genesis Biodetecton & Biocontrol Ltd, China). First-line drug sensitivity was tested using the BACTEC MGIT 960 system, and second-line drug sensitivity was tested using the absolute concentration method. The drug concentrations for isoniazid, rifampin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin, amikacin, and capreomycin were 0.1, 1.0, 2.0, 1.0, 30, 40 µg/mL, respectively. The Ziehl-Neelsen acid-fast staining was used for the smear test.

A total of 40 MTB strains were obtained from the culture collection of the Research Institute of Phtisiopulmonology (St. Petersburg, Russia) and Moscow Scientific-Practical Center of Treatment of Tuberculosis of Moscow Healthcare (Moscow, Russia). The susceptibility testing was done using a BACTEC™ MGIT™ 960 Culture system (Becton Dickinson, USA) by standard protocol. Standard MTB genotyping methods, including spoligotyping and 24 loci MIRU-VNTR were applied to these strains as previously described [16] , [36] (link) (Table S2). Of them 28, 8, and 4 isolates had Beijing, LAM, and Ural spoligotype profiles, respectively. For Beijing isolates with spoligotype SIT1 IS6110 RFLP analysis was additionally performed [37] (link). BioNumerics version 5.1 package (Applied Maths, Belgium) was used for band comparison. According to RFLP analysis eight isolates belonged to Beijing B0/W148 cluster. Four of them were selected for a current whole genome re-sequencing project (Table 1).

In clinical settings, all patients in possible TPE groups and MPE groups underwent TB-related tests. Samples used for M. tuberculosis culture were obtained from pleural fluid/sputum/lavage. The AFB smears were performed with auramine-rhodamine fluorochrome. The mycobacterial cultures were processed using the standard N-acetyl-L-cysteine and sodium hydroxide method using the BACTEC MGIT 960 culture system (Becton, Dickinson and Company, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA). PCR was performed using an M. tuberculosis kit (Sansur Biotech, China) for the detection of M. tuberculosis-complex on pleural biopsy and effusion samples. The PPD test was performed using 5 IU of tuberculin pure protein derivative (Xiangrui Biological Products Co. Ltd, China). Serum TB-antibody was measured using an immunochromatographic test system (Alere Inc., China). The ADA level of pleural fluid was evaluated using an ADA assay kit (Maccura Biotech, China). The IGRA assay was performed using a commercial kit from Oxford Immunotec Ltd (UK). Medical thoracoscopy was performed using an EVIS EXERA LTF-160 pleura videoscope manufactured by Olympus (Tokyo, Japan). Around four to six pieces were collected in formalin for histopathological examination. All tests were performed following the respective manufacturer’s instructions.

Tuberculosis Strain Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The RUS_B0 (earlier name 1947) (Beijing B0/W148 cluster) and the reference H37Rv strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis were used. For proteomic and transcriptomic studies, M. tuberculosis strains were grown without shaking in liquid Middlebrook 7H9 medium with OADC supplement (Becton Dickinson, USA) at 37 °C in three biological replicates. To determine the growth rate, strains in 9 biological replicates were cultured in Mycobacterial growth indicator tubes (MGIT) on a BACTEC MGIT automated Mycobacterial detection system (Becton Dickinson) at 37 °C for 6–7 days. The susceptibility testing was done using the BACTEC MGIT 960 Culture system (Becton Dickinson) following the manufacturer’s protocol. Manipulation of cultures were performed in a BSC II (Thermo Fischer Scientific Inc., USA) within a TB-containment laboratory.
Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data of 5,715 M. tuberculosis isolates was obtained from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) and European Nucleotide Archive and used for B0 samples identification as reported previously11 (link).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
