Increasing prevalence of resistance to second-line drugs among multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates in Kuwait
Abstract Molecular methods detect genetic mutations associated with drug resistance. This study detected resistance-conferring mutations in gyrA/gyrB for fluoroquinolones and rrs/eis genes for second-line injectable drugs (SLIDs) among multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB) isolates...
