Detection of Rifampicin Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Using Middlebrook 7H9 Broth Medium with 2,3-Diphenyl-5-Thienyl-(2)-Tetrazolium Chloride

Background: A simple and cost-effective method is needed for the detection of rifampicin resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis in resource-limited settings. We suggest a broth medium-based method using 2,3-diphenyl-5-thienyl-(2)-tetrazolium chloride (STC) for detection of rifampin resistance of t...
