Molecular Differentiation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains without IS6110 Insertions

Molecular Differentiation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains without IS6110 Insertions

By using standard restriction fragment length polymorphism, 6 zero-copy IS6110 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates were identified from 1,180 Maryland isolates as part of the National Tuberculosis Genotyping Surveillance Network Project. By using various genotyping methods, we demonstrated that this...
