Sputum Microbiota in Tuberculosis as Revealed by 16S rRNA Pyrosequencing

24 Jan 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global threat in the 21st century. Traditional studies of the disease are focused on the single pathogen Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Recent studies have revealed associations of some diseases with an imbalance in the microbial community. Characterization of the TB microbiota could allow a better understanding of the disease. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here, the sputum...
