Mycobacterial cultures were grown in Middlebrook 7H9 broth medium or on Middlebrook agar 7H10 (Becton Dickinson) medium supplemented with albumin-dextrose-catalase (ADC; Difco Laboratories) and containing 0.05% Tween 80 and 20 μg/mL kanamycin. The L-lysine monohydrochloride (Sigma) was dissolved in distilled water and used at a concentration of 40 μg/mL. Mycobacterial suspensions for animal inoculation were prepared in PBS from frozen glycerol stocks previously titrated by plating serial dilutions.

Mtb H37Rv, HN878, CDC1551, Erdman, W148, AH30, CC13, AI10, and KY strains; Mycobacterium bovis BCG; and M. bovis BCG–green fluorescent protein (GFP) were grown in Middlebrook 7H9 broth (BBL Microbiology Systems) supplemented with albumin-dextrose-catalase (ADC; Difco Laboratories) and 0.05% Tween 80 at 37°C for 5 to 7 days to an OD600 (optical density at 600 nm) of 0.4 to 0.5. After this, mycobacterial cells were pelleted, resuspended in fresh 7H9 broth with 20% glycerol, and stored at -80°C. One vial of the stock was thawed to enumerate CFU per milliliter. On the day of infection, the cells were thawed, washed, and sonicated before use. Drug-resistant strains were maintained at the Public Health Research Institute (Newark, NJ).

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.
