Waste to worth: diagnostic accuracy of Xpert MTB/XDR on contaminated liquid cultures to salvage the detection of drug-resistant tuberculosis

ABSTRACT Mycobacterium Growth Indicator Tube (MGIT) 960 culture is critical for tuberculosis (TB) drug susceptibility testing (DST) but is vulnerable to contamination. We evaluated the accuracy of Xpert MTB/XDR, a molecular DST for isoniazid, fluoroquinolone, amikacin, and ethionamide, on to-be-disc...
