QuantTB – A method to classify mixed <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> infections within whole genome sequencing data

2019-06-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Mixed infections of Mycobacterium tuberculosis , and antibiotic heteroresistance, continue to complicate tuberculosis (TB) diagnosis and treatment. Detection of mixed infections has been limited to molecular genotyping techniques, which lack the sensitivity and resolution to accurately estimate the multiplicity of TB infections. In contrast, whole genome sequencing offers sensitive views of t...
