Comparison of mycobacterial DNA extraction and amplification between treatment methods. (a) Amplifiable DNA quantified by qPCR (left) and Ct value (right) using standard lysis method (S) and closed-type pre-treatment device (C) (operating time: 30, 60, or 120 s). (b) Agarose gel electrophoresis of amplified DNA. The full-length gel is presented in Supplementary Figure S3.
