Rapid Detection of Isoniazid, Rifampin, and Ofloxacin Resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis Clinical Isolates Using High-Resolution Melting Analysis
11 Aug 2011
Abstract excerpt
A high-resolution melting analysis (HRMA) assay was developed to detect isoniazid, rifampin, and ofloxacin resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis by targeting resistance-associated mutations in the katG, mabA-inhA promoter, rpoB, and gyrA genes. A set of 28 (17 drug-resistant and 11 fully susceptible) clinical M. tuberculosis isolates was selected for development and evaluation of HRMA. PCR amplicons from the...
