Genetic Characterization and Population Structure of Drug Resistant <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis </em>Isolated from Brazilian Patients Using Whole-Genome Sequencing
2024-04-18
Abstract excerpt
The present study aimed to determine the genetic diversity of isolates of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) from presumed drug resistant tuberculosis patients from several states of Brazil. The isolates had been submitted to conventional drug susceptibility testing for first- and second-line drugs. Multidrug-resistant (MDR-TB) (54.8%) was the most frequent phenotypic resistance profile, in addition to an important...
