Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To analyze the characteristics of embB gene mutation in ethambutol-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. TB) strains isolated from patients in Xi'an for establishing a rapid method to detect the mutation of embB gene in M. TB. METHODS: The embB gene of 104 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates was detected by PCR-Single Strand Conformation Polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) and PCR-Restriction Fragment Length...
