[New medium for mycobacterial isolation and cultivation].
The study was undertaken to develop a new effective and cheap culture medium to be used in the bacteriology of tuberculosis. The medium prepared on the basis of geothermal nonphenol water was found to accelerate and increase detection rates, to increase the rate of accumulation of mycobacterial mass from the samples under study, to exclude mineral salts ("salty composition") from the composition of the medium, which simplifies the procedure of its preparation, reduces material and labor costs, to accelerate diagnosis and determine mycobacterial drug sensitivity, and to institute a correct treatment.
