Simple, rapid, and accurate detection of Fluoroquinolone (FQ) resistance is essential for early initiation of appropriate anti-tuberculosis treatment regimen among rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB). In this study, we developed a new assay, which combines multienzyme isothermal rapid amplification and a lateral flow strip (MIRA-LF), to identify the mutations on codons 90 and 94 of gyrA for detecting levofloxacin (LFX) resistance. Compared to conventional phenotypic drug susceptibility testing, the new assay detected fluoroquinolone resistance with a sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of 92.4%, 98.5%, and 96.5%, respectively. Thus, these characteristics of the newly developed MIRA-LF assay make it particularly useful and accurate for detecting FQ resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis in resource-limited condition.
