Pattern of rpoB gene mutations among <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> patients in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia: a five year hospital based study

2026-03-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> With the emergence of drug-resistant strains and an unprecedented threat to control initiatives, tuberculosis remains to be a major public health risk in Ethiopia. Resistance to rifampicin (RR) is an important indicator, since RR is an acceptable surrogate for multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB). Over 95% of RR is based on mutations in an 81base pair segment of the rpoB gene, detected using rapid...
