Abstract excerpt

In order to evaluate the discriminatory power of different methods for genotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) isolates, we compared the performance of (i) IS6110 DNA fingerprint typing, (ii) spoligotyping, and (iii) 24-loci mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units-variable number of tandem repeats (MIRU-VNTR) typing in a long-term study on the epidemiology of tuberculosis (TB) in...
