The Performance of the Abbott Real Time MTB RIF/INH Compared to the MTBDRplus V2 for the Identification of MDR-TB Among Isolates
Published 2020-09-01“…Of the 10 discordant results, where sequencing was used as the reference method, the RT MTB RIF/INH assays misclassified six resistance isolates, while the LPA misclassified seven.Discussion: Overall, the RT MTB RIF/INH demonstrated good agreement with the LPA, and a better correlation with sequencing on discrepant isolates specifically with mutations occurring in codon 511 of the rpoB gene. The RT MTB RIF/INH therefore can be used to complement existing laboratory algorithms determining Rif and INH resistance profiles, with less emphasis on manual laboratory processing.Keywords: molecular diagnostics, tuberculosis, line-probe assay…”
