Molecular Epidemiology of Tuberculosis in the Netherlands: A Nationwide Study from 1993 through 1997

1 Sept 1999

Abstract excerpt

To disclose risk factors for active tuberculosis transmission in the Netherlands, restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns of 78% of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates, from the period 1993-1997, were analyzed. Of the respective 4266 cases, 46% were found in clusters of isolates with identical RFLPs, and 35% were attributed to active transmission. The clustering percentage increased strongly...
