Fast and low-cost decentralized surveillance of transmission of tuberculosis based on strain-specific PCRs tailored from whole genome sequencing data: a pilot study.

Clinical microbiology and infection : the official publication of the European Society of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases - 1 Mar 2015

Pérez-Lago L, Martínez Lirola M, Herranz M, Comas I, Bouza E, García-de-Viedma D

Abstract excerpt

Molecular epidemiology has transformed our knowledge of how tuberculosis (TB) is transmitted. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has reached unprecedented levels of accuracy. However, it has increased technical requirements and costs, and analysis of data delays results. Our objective was to find a wa...
