Abstract excerpt

The genotype of a Beijing strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is usually determined by spoligotyping. However, this technique requires special equipment and is time-consuming. In this study, we developed a new multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to differentiate between Beijing and non-Beijing strains of MTB. A total of 323 MTB isolates were genotyped by both spoligotyping and the novel multiplex...
