False detection of rifampicin resistance using Xpert(®) MTB/RIF Ultra assay due to an A451V mutation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis
BACKGROUND: In a 12 month period, three Irish-born adult cases with pulmonary TB were initially diagnosed by Xpert(®) MTB/RIF Ultra assay, which detected a rifampicin resistance-conferring mutation prompting treatment as potential MDR cases. METHODS: Further laboratory investigations on the cultured...
