Comparison of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype with other Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains Using MIRU-VNTR method

open access: yesIranian South Medical Journal, 2012
Background: Recently it is shown that Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype are associated with drug resistance. Thus a simple and rapid method is required for identification and differentiation of Beijing family isolates. Therefore the aim of this

[Three step MIRU-VNTR for routine mycobacteriology laboratory practice].

open access: yesMikrobiyoloji bulteni, 2010
Several methods are available for the molecular typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates. The results of the recent research demonstrated that Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive Unit (MIRU)-Variable Number Tandem Repeats (VNTR) method has high discriminatory power and reproducibility, is easy to perform, and available for multi-center ...

MIRU–VNTR profiles of three major Mycobacterium tuberculosis spoligotypes found in western India

open access: yesTuberculosis, 2013
We performed 12 loci MIRU-VNTR on 327 Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) isolates belonging to three major spoligotypes MANU1, CAS1_Delhi and Beijing from Mumbai, western India and two proximal rural locations. Complete allele and drug susceptibility data was available for 232 isolates.

Investigating spillover of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis from a prison: a spatial and molecular epidemiological analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Congregate settings may serve as institutional amplifiers of tuberculosis (TB) and multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). We analyze spatial, epidemiological, and pathogen genetic data prospectively collected from neighborhoods ...
