Direct Comparison of the N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine-Sodium Hydroxide and the Trisodium Phosphate Digestion Methods for the Culture of Mycobacteria

Comparison of sputum digestion procedures utilizing acetylcysteine-sodium hydroxide (AC) and trisodium phosphate for the isolation and culture of mycobacteria indicated that the AC procedure provides faster growth, thus permitting the earlier detection of positives. Also, in untreated patients and t...
