We describe here a very simple modification of the auramine staining procedure based on preparation of a UV-fixed thick blotch which allowed us to reach an overall sensitivity of 0.82 (592 acid-fast bacillus [AFB]-positive specimens/722 initial respiratory specimens with positive mycobacterial culture) and sensitivities of 0.93 (526 AFB-positive specimens/564 culture-positive specimens) for Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and 0.42 (66 AFB-positive specimens/158 culture-positive specimens) for nontuberculous mycobacteria.
我们在此描述了一种非常简单的改良金胺染色程序,即制备 UV 固定厚涂片,这使我们的总灵敏度达到 0.82(592 份抗酸杆菌 [AFB] 阳性标本/722 份初始分枝杆菌培养阳性呼吸道标本),分枝杆菌复合群的灵敏度为 0.93(526 份 AFB 阳性标本/564 份培养阳性标本),非结核分枝杆菌的灵敏度为 0.42(66 份 AFB 阳性标本/158 份培养阳性标本)。
