Abstract

Minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of rifabutin, ciprofloxacin, and ofloxacin were determined for "wild" Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains, susceptible to all antituberculosis drugs in the conventional test, isolated from newly diagnosed Taiwanese patients who had never had prior treatment for tuberculosis. These MICs were within the limits previously reported for strains isolated in the United States. The range of MICs of rifabutin for Taiwanese strains was 0.015 to 0.125 micrograms/ml; ciprofloxacin, 0.25 to 2.0 micrograms/ml; ofloxacin, 0.5 to 2.0 micrograms/ml. On the basis of an evaluation of the highest broth-determined MICs found in this and in a previous study, we suggest that the following MICs, when determined in 7H12 broth radiometrically, should be used as breakpoints to classify the strain as "susceptible": for rifabutin, 0.125 micrograms/ml or less; for ofloxacin and ciprofloxacin, 2.0 micrograms/ml or less.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
