Improving the Sensitivity of the Xpert MTB/RIF Assay on Sputum Pellets by Decreasing the Amount of Added Sample Reagent: a Laboratory and Clinical Evaluation

The Xpert MTB/RIF (Xpert) assay permits rapid near-patient detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in sputum; however, the test sensitivity remains suboptimal in paucibacillary specimens that are negative for acid-fast bacilli using smear microscopy.
