Participant disposition flow chart for individuals recruited to this study. (A) Sputum specimens obtained from these individuals were decontaminated and the resulting bacteria grown in limiting dilution assays with various CF combinations. (B) Sputum specimens obtained from these individuals were decontaminated and the ability of the various fatty acids and cyclic-AMP to resuscitate the DCTB was assessed by MPN and CFU assays.
