Abstract excerpt
The commonly-used drug susceptibility testing (DST) relies on bacterial culture and faces shortcomings such as long turnaround time and clonal/subclonal selection biases. Here, we developed a targeted deep amplicon sequencing (DAS) method directly applied to clinical specimens. In this DAS panel, we examined 941 drug-resistant mutations (DRMs) associated with 20 anti-tuberculosis drugs with only 4 pg of initial...
