  3. Defining threshold values in microscopic examination and qPCR for optimal performance of line probe assays for resistance detection in Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex

    • Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease

    • Author(s): Karoline Wagner, Benjamin Preiswerk, Peter M. Keller, Bettina Schulthess

      Abstract

      Line probe assays enable rapid detection of drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis directly from clinical specimens. This study shows that defining threshold values in microscopic examination or PCR detection of M. tuberculosis optimizes line probe assay efficiency, thereby avoiding costs and loss of time due to unnecessary molecular testing.

      Abstract

      This research is focused on the study of African swine fever virus (ASFV) survival in the leech Hirudo medicinalis.

      To detect the infection route of the virus in leeches, two introduction methods were used: blood-feeding from infected swine hosts and exposure to ASFV-contaminated water (leeches cultivated with ASFV).
