Molecular typing and differentiation of Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates using Double Repetitive Element PCR and Duplex PCR
Background: To date, the advancements in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assures accurate, fast identification and mycobacterial speciation in clinical settings, which promotes a better tuberculosis (TB) treatment regimen. Methods: In this study, a total of 78 clinically suspected cases of TB were p...
