Why Liquid Culture?
• Current practice, largely relies on
microscopy and solid culture with
the following drawback:
 Microscopy: although very
specific, but low sensitivity,
cannot identify MDR, cannot
differentiate between
NTM&MTB
 Solid Culture: more sensitive, but
growth of MTB requires 4-8
weeks, thus delay treatment.
• Expanding culture capacity as a
result of epidemic of HIV-TB coinfection and MDR TB
• Liquid culture reduce result
timeline
 Weeks to days for MTB
identification
 From month (28-42 d) to week
for DST (as little as 10 d)
• Increased 10% case yield
compare to solid culture.
HOWEVER, Liquid Culture
• Prone to contamination: ~5-10%
cannot yield result

Liquid Culture
MGIT960 system
Product name: Mycobacterium Growth
Indicator Tube (MGIT) and drug
susceptibility testing (DST)
Manufacturer: Becton, Dickinson and
Company (BD). Endorsed by WHO (2007).
Implementation in endemic countries is
ongoing. Both of these products are
already in use in high income countries
and in the private sector.
Intend use where culture and biosafety
facilities exist
Capacity: The BACTEC MGIT 960 system , 960 tubes /up to 8,000 specimens per year

MGIT
Mycobacterium Growth Indicator Tube
 Acceptable specimen types are digested and
decontaminated clinical specimens (except
urine) and sterile body fluids (except blood).
 Made from unbreakable plastic tubes
containing enriched culture media.
The BBL™ MGIT™ Mycobacteria
Growth Indicator Tube
supplemented with BBL™ MGIT™
OADC enrichment and BBL™
MGIT™ PANTA™ antibiotic
mixture, when appropriate, is
intended for the detection and
recovery of mycobacteria.
 At the bottom of the tube is a silicone plug
containing chemicals that become
fluorescent when bacteria consume oxygen
during the process of growth, making
detection possible using either manual or
automated system

Liquid Culture
MGIT960 system
MGIT can also be used to perform DST, which is done by comparing the growth of
mycobacteria with and without the addition of drugs used to treat TB.
Despite having been developed over a
decade ago, the advantages of MGIT for
TB detection were not reaching most
endemic settings for several reasons.
This was primarily due to
 Cost of the test
 Lack of a simple means to confirm the
growth of M. tuberculosis species in
positive tubes.
 Lack of data demonstrating that the
use of liquid culture was feasible in
resource-constrained settings.

RESULT INTERPRETATION
• In order to give a valid result, all six expected control
bands should appear correctly. Otherwise, the result is
considered invalid
 The absence of at least one of the wild-type bands or the
presence of mutation bands in each drug resistance-related
gene implies that the sample tested is resistant to the
respective antibiotic.
 Presence of all the wild-type probes and there is no detectable
mutation within the region examined, the sample tested is
susceptible to the respective antibiotic.

Automates and integrates (1) Sample preparation, (2) Nucleic acid
Amplification, and (3) Real time detection of the target sequence
• Suitable for in vitro diagnostic and research based applications that
require hands-off processing of patient samples (specimens) and provides
both summarized and detailed test results data in tabular and graphic
formats.
• The GeneXpert system can only be used with the GeneXpert cartridge

Limitations
• Reliable result critically is dependent upon proper specimen
collection, handling and storage (Detection of MTB depends on
number of bacteria presented in sample)
• Positive test result does not necessarily indicate the presence of
viable organism
• Test result might be affected by concurrent antibiotics therapy.
Therefore, therapeutic success or failure cannot be assessed by
using this test because DNA might persist following anti-microbial
therapy.
25
Operational Challenges
• Require stable power supply, to minimize unnecessary test
error
• GeneXpert dx system is controlled solely through computer
(desktop or laptop)- infected by computer virus could stop
the whole machine operation.
• The most commonly-deployed GeneXpert device (GX4) has a
limited throughput, and larger systems (or linked devices),
with throughputs of up to 1000 tests/day, will carry higher
capital costs.
• Still costly- for High TB burden countries
4 modules machine cost $17,000
Cartridge costs $10

Rif resistant Vs MDR marker?
How often is a rifampicin resistant case also resistant to
isoniazid?
• Data from FIND global project show that frequently patients
with rifampicin resistance are MDR. But not always;
 82% of new rifampicin resistant cases were MDR
 87% of previously treated rifampicin resistant cases are
also MDR-TB.
 Among high prevalence populations, the median
proportion is closer to 92%
The answer is “PRETTY GOOD but NOT PERFECT”

decontamination is available for proper
disposals.
Facility construction

•A sink and eyewash are readily available.
•Laboratorians are under medical surveillance
and might receive immunizations for microbes
they work with.
•Access to the laboratory is restricted and
controlled at all times.
Safety equipment
•Appropriate PPE must be worn, and respirators
might be required
.
•All work with microbes must be performed
within an appropriate BSC
.
