Abstract

This study investigated the diagnostic efficiencies of two assays for the detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex: (1) the reciprocal-flow real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based GeneSoC assay and (2) the real-time PCR based GENECUBE MTB assay with quenching probe. These assays were performed for stored clinical samples and results were compared with the confirmed results based on culture and COBAS TaqMan MTB assay. A total of 53 samples (20 confirmed positives and 33 confirmed negatives) were included in the performance analysis. The GeneSoC assay showed concordance in all 53 samples, regardless of specimen type, while the GENECUBE MTB assay showed concordance in 19 of the 20 confirmed positive samples and all 33 confirmed negative samples. The overall agreement was 100.0% for the GeneSoC assay and 98.1% for the GENECUBE MTB assay. Positive and negative percent agreements were 100.0% each for the GeneSoC assay and 95.0% and 100.0%, respectively, for the GENECUBE MTB assay. Both the GeneSoC and GENECUBE MTB assays exhibited excellent performance in detecting M. tuberculosis complex. The GeneSoC assay is useful for independent assays of individual samples, whereas the GENECUBE MTB assay is suitable for batch assays of multiple samples.

期刊介绍： Microorganisms (ISSN 2076-2607) is an international, peer-reviewed open access journal which provides an advanced forum for studies related to prokaryotic and eukaryotic microorganisms, viruses and prions. It publishes reviews, research papers and communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation or experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary electronic material.
