Molecular and epidemiological characterization of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates in Johannesburg, South Africa [PDF]
South Africa has a heavy burden of tuberculosis (TB) which is exacerbated by the concurrent epidemic of HIV. Molecular techniques have been used in most developed countries to investigate the dynamics of the TB epidemic, but despite the high prevalence ...

Contextualizing Mycobacterium tuberculosis Genetic Diversity in Portugal using MIRU-VNTR Data
Tuberculosis (TB) is an ancient and highly contagious disease caused by a pathogenic bacterium called Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Mtb causes pulmonary or extrapulmonary bacterial infections, which can lead to an excess mortality or morbidity. TB has high transmissibility, making it a Public Health priority worldwide.
