A modified automated high-throughput mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit method for genotyping Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

Diagnostic microbiology and infectious disease - 1 Dec 2005

Chin Pei-Ju, Jou Ruwen

Abstract excerpt

A total of 502 isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis collected in Taiwan were genotyped using a modified and high-throughput typing system involving mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units. The Hunter-Gaston discriminatory index improved significantly to 0.972 with the modified 15-locus scheme, including ETR-A, ETR-B, and ETR-C, compared with 0.951 for the previously reported 12-locus design.
