Fig 6: Results of the vBiDz-NTMST assay against NTM clinical samples containing Mavi, Mint, Mabs or Mfor.
A. Absorbance at 420 nm for the samples containing each vBiDz sensor in the presence of one of the analytes (indicate in the legend). The signal-to-background ration (S/B) was calculated by dividing the absorbance values by the absorbance of the blank (the sensor in the absence of the analyte). NTC – “no target” control for PCR amplification. The data presented here is representative of 3 independent experiments with standard deviations as error bars. B. Visual image of a well plate containing samples similar to those from panel A.
