Abstract excerpt

The present study evaluated new markers for molecular typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis with a collection of strains circulating in Bulgaria. A study sample included 133 strains from epidemiologically unlinked patients from different regions of the country. Spoligotyping was used as a primary typing tool; it subdivided these strains into 37 types, including 15 clusters and 22 singletons. Traditional...
