The potential bactericidal activity against tuberculosis and the activity against urinary opportunistic Enterobacteriaceae were determined in healthy individuals, by using the Bactec MGIT 960 automatic system for cultivation and determination of drug resistance in mycobacteria and inoculating to dense nutrient media. The urine of healthy individuals was found to have no bactericidal activity against M. tuberculosis in vitro.
