Failure of commercial ligase chain reaction to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis DNA in sputum samples from a patient with smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis due to a deletion of the target region.

Abstract

We report on a strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with a deletion in the protein antigen B gene overlapping the probe binding sites for the Abbott Diagnostics LCx M. tuberculosis (LCx-MTB) probe assay. A false-negative result with the LCx-MTB assay delayed a laboratory diagnosis of tuberculosis.
