Resumen

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is known for its adaptive capability in developing resistance to antibiotics, through the selection of spontaneous mutations that arise during treatment. Generating spontaneous antibiotic-resistant mutants in vitro is challenging but necessary for studying this phenomenon. A protocol was designed and tested to select stable, MTB spontaneous, d-cycloserine (DCS) resistant mutants. Twenty-four colonies resistant to DCS were selected, demonstrating an increase between 1 and 4 times the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) set for Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv ATCC 27294 reference strain.
