Cryptic Resistance Mutations Associated With Misdiagnoses of Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis
11 Mar 2019
Abstract excerpt
Understanding why some multidrug-resistant tuberculosis cases are not detected by rapid phenotypic and genotypic routine clinical tests is essential to improve diagnostic assays and advance toward personalized tuberculosis treatment. Here, we combine whole-genome sequencing with single-colony phenotyping to identify a multidrug-resistant strain that had infected a patient for 9 years. Our investigation revealed...
