Does Xpert MTB/RIF Assay Give Rifampicin Resistance Results Without Identified Mutation? Review of Cases from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

2020-01-16

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background: Xpert® MTB/RIF assay is currently used in Ethiopia for the rapid diagnosis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) and mutations that confer Rifampicin resistance. Rifampicin resistance is determined based on any mutation in the 81 bp of rpoB gene using five overlapping probes represented as Probe A (codons 507–511), Probe B (codons 512–518), Probe C (codons 518–523), Probe D (c...
