Tuberculosis in the Caribbean: using spacer oligonucleotide typing to understand strain origin and transmission.

Emerging infectious diseases - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

We used direct repeat (DR)-based spacer oligonucleotide typing (spoligotyping) (in association with double-repetitive element polymerase chain reaction, IS6110-restriction fragment length polymorphism [RFLP], and sometimes DR-RFLP and polymorphic GC-rich sequence-RFLP) to detect epidemiologic links and transmission patterns of Mycobacterium tuberculosis on Martinique, Guadeloupe, and French Guiana. In more than a...
