Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The present study aims to investigate the population structure of Thai Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) isolates and anti-tuberculosis (TB) drug resistance and to determine the most frequent genetic mutations conferring isoniazid (INH) resistance. METHODS: Genomic DNA from 287 MTB clinical isolates were extracted and used for spoligotyping, amplification and sequencing analysis of the region of...
