The genetic polymorphism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains isolated in Seville, Spain, was studied by using computer-assisted analysis of the IS6110 fingerprint in order to determine the current situation and to evaluate the human-to-human transmission of this pathogen. One hundred seventy-six isolates from 175 patients among the 205...

Very fast amplification of DNA in small volumes can be continuously monitored with a rapid cycler that incorporates fluorimetric detection. Primers were designed to amplify a 157-bp fragment of the rpoB gene spanning codons 526 and 531 and a 209-bp fragment of the katG gene spanning codon 315 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Most mutations...

Our objective was to evaluate the feasibility of a molecular assay based on a real-time PCR technique, carried out with a LightCycler instrument (Roche Biochemicals), to identify Mycobacterium tuberculosis bacilli and to detect rifampin and isoniazid resistance in DNA extracts from sputum samples. We studied three genes: rpoB, which is...
