Fitness of acquired drug resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from DOTS compliant patients.

Tuberculosis (Edinburgh, Scotland) - 1 Jul 2013

Bhatter Purva, Mistry Nerges

Abstract excerpt

The increasing levels of multi drug resistant tuberculosis (MDRTB) in endemic regions are a cause of concern. When MDR strains exhibit higher fitness they threaten global tuberculosis control. Evaluation of factors other than the particular non-synonymous substitutions that contribute to the fitness of strains may have an important bearing on understanding the spread of the disease. The aim of the study was to...
