ABSTRACT
Human blood medium (HBM) and egg enriched sheep blood medium (SBM) were evaluated to see their efficacy for primary culture of tubercle bacilli. SBM is found to be equally effective compared to HBM. Both types of media were associated with a low rate of contamination (2.75%). Availability of culture results after 7 days compared to 6 weeks on Lowenstein-Jensen media is a distinct advantage of slide culture method with a possible use in primary isolation and in evaluation of drug sensitivity pattern of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
