Highly Sensitive Detection of Isoniazid Heteroresistance in Mycobacterium Tuberculosis by Droplet Digital PCR
1 Oct 2022
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: The drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis constitutes a major public health threat. Existing approaches make it challenging to detect low levels of drug-resistant TB, also known as heteroresistance (HR), in a population. The recently found droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) is a sensitive method for determining the precise amount of nucleic acid in a sample. We used ddPCR to test the Mycobacterium...
