Worldwide occurrence of Beijing/W strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: a systematic review.

Emerging infectious diseases - 1 Aug 2002

Glynn Judith R, Whiteley Jennifer, Bifani Pablo J, Kremer Kristin, van Soolingen Dick

Abstract excerpt

Strains of the Beijing/W genotype family of Mycobacterium tuberculosis have caused large outbreaks of tuberculosis, sometimes involving multidrug resistance. This genetically highly conserved family of M. tuberculosis strains predominates in some geographic areas. We have conducted a systematic r...
