Spoligotypes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from Different Provinces of China [PDF]
ABSTRACT A total of 2,346 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from 13 provinces in China were genotyped by spoligotyping. Two hundred seventy-eight spoligotypes were identified: 2,153 isolates were grouped into 85 clusters, and the remaining 193 isolates were orphans. Comparison with the SpolDB4.0 database

Abstract: Tuberculosis (TB) caused by the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC), including M. bovis, affects humans and multiple animal species. Cattle are significant hosts, and their interaction with other species, such as badgers and deer, is crucial for TB transmission dynamics.

Pulmonary tuberculosis in Harare, Zimbabwe: analysis by spoligotyping [PDF]
Over the last 10 years there has been a fourfold increase in cases of tuberculosis in Harare, Zimbabwe. The use of molecular epidemiology to understand tuberculosis transmission in this epidemic has been hampered by the availability of suitable culture facilities.

Global Distribution of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Spoligotypes
Nous présentons un bref résumé des observations récentes sur la distribution mondiale des principaux clades du complexe Mycobacterium tuberculosis, l'agent causal de la tuberculose. Cette distribution globale a été définie par l'exploration de données d'une base de données internationale de spoligotypage, SpolDB3.

Occurrence of tuberculosis among people exposed to cattle in Bangladesh
Overall, 11% people (involved with cattle husbandry) were infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis including 6.8% were resistant to one or two anti‐TB drugs. No Mycobacterium spp. was found in cattle. Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis among workers in the live cattle market poses possible risk of transmission of tuberculosis to people in the live

Detecting emerging strains of tuberculosis by using spoligotypes [PDF]
The W-Beijing strain of tuberculosis has been identified in many molecular epidemiological studies as being particularly prevalent. This identification has been made possible through the development of a number of genotyping technologies including spoligotyping.

Mycobacterium bovis in Egyptian mongoose, Spain
Abstract Tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium bovis and other related mycobacteria has been reported in a wide range of mammals worldwide. In the case of the Herpestidae family, Mycobacterium mungi and M. bovis, both belonging to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex, have been reported in banded mongooses (Mungos mungo) in Africa and in Egyptian ...

Identifying Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strain families using spoligotypes [PDF]
We present a novel approach for analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) strain genotyping data. Our work presents a first step in an ongoing project dedicated to the development of decision support tools for tuberculosis (TB) epidemiologists exploiting both genotyping and epidemiological data.

Mycobacterium bovis BCG-Russia Clinical Isolate with Noncanonical Spoligotyping Profile [PDF]
To date, a unique spoligotyping profile (absent spacers 3, 9, 16, and 39 to 43) has been considered a canonical feature of a Mycobacterium bovis BCG strain, regardless of its country of use. Here, we report the first case of a clinical BCG strain with an unusual, M. bovis-like spoligotyping profile with additionally deleted spacers 1 and 2.
