Detecting emerging strains of tuberculosis by using spoligotypes.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 10 Oct 2006

Tanaka Mark M, Francis Andrew R

Abstract excerpt

The W-Beijing strain of tuberculosis has been identified in many molecular epidemiological studies as being particularly prevalent. This identification has been made possible through the development of a number of genotyping technologies including spoligotyping. Highly prevalent genotypes associated with outbreaks, such as the W-Beijing strain, are implicitly regarded as fast spreading. Here we present a...
