24-locus MIRU-VNTR genotyping is a useful tool to study the molecular epidemiology of tuberculosis among Warao Amerindians in Venezuela.

Tuberculosis (Edinburgh, Scotland) - 1 Sept 2008

Maes Mailis, Kremer Kristin, van Soolingen Dick, Takiff Howard, de Waard Jacobus H

Abstract excerpt

While the gold standard for molecular epidemiological studies on tuberculosis is changing towards MIRU-VNTR typing because this technique generates easily analyzed numerical results, it is less labor intensive and has a discriminative power comparable to that of IS6110-based RFLP, especially when...
