The variability and reproducibility of whole genome sequencing technology for detecting resistance to anti-tuberculous drugs
1 Dec 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The emergence of resistance to anti-tuberculosis drugs is a serious and growing threat to public health. Next-generation sequencing is rapidly gaining traction as a diagnostic tool for investigating drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis to aid treatment decisions. However, there are few little data regarding the precision of such sequencing for assigning resistance profiles. METHODS: We...
