Field Evaluation of a Simple Fluorescence Method for Detection of Viable Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Sputum Specimens during Treatment Follow-Up

Simple tuberculosis (TB) treatment monitoring tools are needed. We assessed the performance of fluorescein-diacetate (FDA) smear microscopy for detection of viable Mycobacterium tuberculosis in sputum specimens (n = 288) of TB cases under treatment compared to culture (17.4% culture positivity).
