Genotyping in contact investigations: a CDC perspective.

The international journal of tuberculosis and lung disease : the official journal of the International Union against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease - 1 Dec 2003

Crawford J T

Abstract excerpt

Genotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates has been widely used to support investigations of outbreaks and as a tool for studying transmission dynamics and other aspects of tuberculosis epidemiology. Its applications to contact investigations are more limited. Targeted typing can be used to confirm or disprove suspected relationships among cases. Universal typing of isolates can be used to identify...
