  • Title: Evaluation of BacT/Alert 3D automated unit for detection of nontuberculous mycobacteria requiring incubation at 30 degrees C for optimal growth.
    Author: Alfa MJ, Manickam K, Sepehri S, Sitter D, Lenton P.
    Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 2011 Jul; 49(7):2691-3. PubMed ID: 21543566.
    Abstract:
    The reliability of the BacT/Alert 3D unit for automated detection of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) that grow optimally at 30 °C was assessed. This system reliably maintained a temperature of 30 °C and detected 50% of the clinical NTM strains (5 Mycobacterium marinum and 3 Mycobacterium gordonae strains) faster than 37 °C culture.
