For removing Mtb clumps, we perform a low speed centrifugation step (500 rpm) and sonication.
I am attaching the method script for identifying the number of autophagy marker (e.g. p62 or phosphoTBK1 in the script below) stained 'spots' that colocalize with mCherry expressing Mtb in cells infected with two Mtb bacilli. This script was written on the Opera Phenix Harmony program.
