Depends upon what you're looking for. In the instance of mycobacteria (and many other potential pathogens), it will need to be heated above ambient anyway. In that context, it could be constructed in a fashion similar to the differential scanning calorimeter, and see whether the sample needs to be heated more or less than the control in order to maintain ~37C or whatever.
