Abstract:Introduction In recent years, drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains have gradually become widespread. Most drug resistance is related to specific mutations. We investigated M. tuberculosis drug resistance in the Kashgar area, China. Methods The drug-susceptibility test was conducted to clinical isolates of M. tuberculosis. Genomic-sequencing technology was used for the drug-resistant strains and the significance of DNA sequencing as a rapid aid for drug-resistance detection and the diagnosis method… Show more
