Application of the Capilia TB assay for culture confirmation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates.

D Hillemann1, S Rüsch-Gerdes, E Richter.   

Abstract

The usefulness of a low-tech rapid test for culture confirmation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, Capilia TB, was tested on 172 mycobacteria-positive clinical samples. The overall sensitivity and specificity were 92.4% and 100%, respectively. In three of nine false-negative isolates a mutation in the mpb64 gene could be detected.
