Comparison of in silico predicted Mycobacterium tuberculosis spoligotypes and lineages from whole genome sequencing data [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2023
Bacterial strain-types in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex underlie tuberculosis disease, and have been associated with drug resistance, transmissibility, virulence, and host–pathogen interactions.

Spoligotypes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from Different Provinces of China [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2010
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

Consistency of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Spoligotyping between the Membrane-Based Method and In Silico Approach

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
To tackle the spread of tuberculosis (TB), epidemiological studies are undertaken worldwide to investigate TB transmission chains. Clustered regulatory interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) locus diversity, also called spoligotyping, is a widely

Detection of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex Bacilli and Nucleic Acids From Tongue Swabs in Young, Hospitalized Children

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Diagnosis of tuberculosis in pediatric patients remains challenging due to inherent difficulties associated with obtaining respiratory samples for molecular and culture-based testing. To address this, recent studies have highlighted the utility of tongue

Global Distribution of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Spoligotypes [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2002
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.

Typing of mycobacteria using spoligotyping [PDF]

Thorax, 1998
The potential use of spoligotyping—a polymerase chain reaction based typing system for differentiation of strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis —for studying the epidemiology of tuberculosis in developing countries which do not routinely perform mycobacterial culture is described in this issue of Thorax by Heyderman et al in a study from Zimbabwe.1 How

Molecular Analysis of Anti-Tuberculosis Drug Resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Isolated in the Republic of Korea

Antibiotics, 2023
Rapid and accurate detection of tuberculosis (TB) drug resistance is critical for the successful treatment and control of TB. Here, we investigated resistance to anti-TB drugs and genetic variations in 215 drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis ...

Spoligotype Variation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains Prevailing in Korea [PDF]

Canadian Journal of Infectious Diseases and Medical Microbiology, 2020
Tuberculosis (TB) is an ongoing global health problem, including in South Korea. To manage TB efficiently, it is necessary to understand the epidemiology, transmission route, and characteristics of prevailing Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. In this study, we investigated microevolutions over time in the spoligotype patterns of M.
