Detection of Mutations and Genotyping of Drug-Resistant <em>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</em> Strains Isolated from Patients in Rural Eastern Cape Province

2023-06-09

Abstract excerpt

Drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) is still a major public health concern in South Africa. Mutations in M. tuberculosis can cause varying levels of phenotypic resistance to anti-TB medications. There have been no prior studies on gene mutations and the genotyping of DR-TB in the rural Eastern Cape Province; hence we aimed to identify DR-TB mutations, genetic diversity and allocated lineages among patients in this...
