Molecular drug susceptibility testing against the first-line (rifampin and isoniazid) and second-line (ciprofloxacin–amikacin and kanamycin) treatment in different subtypes of Mycobacterium simiae

Objective background: Mycobacterium simiae has been identified as the most prevalent slow growing mycobacteria that has been isolated among Iranian patients. Due to an importance of molecular approaches in the treatment of nontuberculosis mycobacteria, this study aimed to evaluate molecular drug sus...
