Predominance of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing strain amongst children from a high tuberculosis burden township in South Africa.

Tuberculosis (Edinburgh, Scotland) - 1 Sept 2022

Shaik Junaid, Pillay Manormoney, Moodley Julie, Jeena Prakash

Abstract excerpt

The objective was to determine the molecular epidemiology and drug susceptibility patterns of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) of children and their household contacts (HHC) in Umlazi, a high TB-burden township in South Africa. Sixty eight MTBRifPLUS positive TB-infected children (TIC) (≤14 years) and 111 HHC were enrolled. Drug susceptibility testing (DST) was performed on sputum samples using the proportion...
