We evaluated the sensitivity of a DNA amplification test for the detection of Mycobacterium avium in blood samples using different blood components and different DNA extraction methods. M. avium-inoculated blood samples were processed to obtain separate blood components: peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), polymorphonuclear cells (PMNCs), and whole-blood sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-lysate pellets. The sensitivity for the detection of the lowest mycobacterial load (1 CFU/ml) was significantly greater (P &lt; 0.01) with DNA extracted from SDS-lysate pellets than with DNA extracted from PBMCs or PMNCs. Subsequently, DNA extraction methods based on guanidine NaOH, and proteinase were compared. The sensitivity of the guanidine-based method was significantly greater (P &lt; 0.01) than those of the others.
