Tuberculosis is a disease that is among the ten leading causes of death worldwide according to the latest reports issued by the World Health Organization (WHO), which is why various diagnostic methods have been implemented, among them are molecular tests that have advantages such as automation, short response time, high sensitivity and specificity; however, they are very expensive. There are also inexpensive tests such as bacilloscopy which is based on direct observation of Koch's bacillus under a microscope, but with a very low sensitivity (40% - 70%) or cultures using Löwenstein-Jensen or Ogawa medium, still a low-cost option, but with longer response times (≥ 24 days). The Microscopic Observation Drug Susceptibility Test (MODS), which uses Middleebrook 7H9 liquid medium enriched with OADC (supplement composed of oleic acid, albumin, dextrose and catalase), casitona and glycerol and the antimicrobial supplement PANTA (7H9-OADC), presents high sensitivity and specificity. MODS is based on the detection of the characteristic growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB), which in turn evaluates susceptibility to isoniazid and rifampicin in a short time, is low cost and ideal for implementation in developing countries. However, this method requires a variety of inputs and highly trained personnel to ensure the correct preparation of the culture medium, which is a limitation to its extensive use. In the present proposal, two alternative 7H9-OADC-based media that only require the addition of sterile water for use were evaluated. The alternative media were: Mixed media, prepared by mixing the powdered media components (without sterilization); and lyophilized media, prepared by lyophilization of the sterile liquid 7H9-OADC medium. In order to have a minimum medium that ensures the growth of MTB while maintaining the sterility of the medium, catalase (only in the mixed medium), PANTA and gamma irradiation were evaluated, generating a total of 10 conditions (variations of the mixed and lyophilized media). The best performing media were selected and evaluated with smear-positive sputum samples. Bacterial growth was determined by number of microcolonies and percentage growth of the MTB isolate and by percentage growth in sputum samples. Analysis with MTB isolate showed that the addition of catalase promotes MTB growth regardless of media type (p=0.006); gamma radiation does not affect MTB growth (p=1) and the presence of PANTA reduces MTB growth significantly in irradiated lyophilized media (p<0.05). 26 sputum samples were positive on all media with a median day of positivity of 6 ± 3 days with a range of 4 to 14 days. No significant differences (p=0.47) were observed in the percentage of growth between conventional medium (100%), mixed medium (95%) and lyophilized medium (100%). In conclusion, preliminary results show that the alternative media presentations perform similarly to the standard MODS medium.
