The in situ staining method of Chen (1977) for the detection of mycoplasma contaminants in tissue cultures was tested in cultures of human skin fibroblasts after controlled contamination with Mycoplasma arginini. It is concluded that this method is reliable only at infection rates of 100% or higher,

Diagnosis of pulmonary tuberculosis depends on the bacteriological examination of sputum. Sputum smear microscopy is efficient and can confirm the disease. However, direct microscopy of sputum, though rapid, has low sensitivity. There is, therefore, an urgent need to develop rapid, much more sensiti
