Clinical Information

Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
The Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) provides a consensus protocol for the methods, antimycobacterial agents, and critical concentrations of each agent to be tested in order to permit standardized interpretation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex susceptibility testing results. CLSI guidelines suggest that second-line agents should be tested when an isolate of M tuberculosis complex is resistant to rifampin, is monoresistant to the critical concentration of isoniazid and the physician intends to use a fluoroquinolone for therapy, or is resistant to any combination of 2 first-line agents.
This test uses a broth microdilution method for susceptibility testing of M tuberculosis complex against second-line agents. Agents tested are amikacin, ethionamide, kanamycin, moxifloxacin, ofloxacin, p-aminosalicylic acid, rifabutin, and streptomycin. In contrast to other M tuberculosis complex susceptibility methods which test 1 or 2 critical concentrations of a drug, this method examines a range of drug concentrations and produces a minimal inhibitory concentration result.
Reference Values
Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.

*Laboratory-derived tentative interpretations based on MIC breakpoints established relative to the indirect agar proportion method; consensus breakpoint interpretations are not available at this time.(1)
**This test is used as an alternative to TB1LN / Antimicrobial Susceptibility, Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex, First Line, Varies when reagents are not available to perform the TB1LN test. These agents are not routinely reported with this test.
Cautions
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Consensus guidelines for interpretive criteria using this method are not available at this time. Breakpoints were established by Mayo Clinic by comparison to the critical concentration for each drug and are considered tentative until consensus guidelines are established.
In vitro susceptibility does not guarantee clinical response. Therefore, the decision to treat with a particular agent should not be based solely on the antimicrobial susceptibility testing result.
Drug susceptibility testing should be performed on pure culture isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex.

Describes how the test is performed and provides a method-specific reference
This test utilizes the MycoTB broth microtiter dilution plate (Trek Diagnostic Systems, Inc.). Antimicrobials included in the assay are tested according to the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines. The plate contains lyophilized antimicrobials which are rehydrated prior to testing. A standardized suspension of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolate is added to the plate wells and the plate is incubated at 36 degrees C in 5% to 10% carbon dioxide for up to 14 days. The first drug-containing well with no visible growth is determined to be the endpoint.(CLSI. Susceptibility Testing of Mycobacteria, Nocardiae, and Other Actinomycetes; Approved Standard.
