The Study of PncA Gene Using PCR-RFLP and Allele-Specific PCR Methods in Distinguishing Mycobacterium Bovis from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis

Background: Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic bacterial disease of cattle that occasionally affects human. A unique mutation at position 169 (C→G) in Mycobacterium bovis differentiates it from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. For the first time, PCR-RFLP method was used in this study to separate the two o...
