1 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
conferred rifampicin-resistance on M. tuberculosis.Approximately 11.42% (4/35) of isolates with S315T mutation in katG led to rifampicin-resistance instead of isoniazid-resistance.The mutation in katG gene was found at various locations (P280P, G279R, E340Q, T271I, E340*stop codon, R373G, and S315N).Streptomycin-resistance was detected in 42% (21/50) of the strains, but only two strains had rrs gene mutations...
