Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The prevalence of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (TB) among new and retreatment cases in 2011 in Ethiopia was 2.7% and 17.9%, respectively. However, data on heteroresistance and gene mutation profiles of Mycobacterium tuberculosis were not documented. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 413 TB-positive clinical specimens submitted between 2012 and 2014 to Bahir Dar Regional Laboratory...
