Identification of Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Complex, Using Molecular Methods
Abstract Background and Objective: A high level of homogeneity observed within all bacteria in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex makes a property that seriously challenges traditional biochemical-based identification methods of these pathogens in the laboratory. The work presented here was conducted to characterize Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates in Golestan, Northern Iran. ...
متن کاملGenetic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex in Jos, Nigeria
BACKGROUND Nigeria has a high tuberculosis incidence, and genotyping studies of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Complex (MTC) in the country are necessary in order to improve our understanding of the epidemic. METHODS Isolates of MTC were isolated from cases of pulmonary tuberculosis in Jos, North Central region of Nigeria during 2006-2008. Drug susceptibility test (DST) was performed on 77 of 111...
متن کاملGenetic biodiversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains from patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Cameroon.
We analyzed DNA polymorphisms in 455 Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates from 455 patients to evaluate the biodiversity of tubercle bacilli in Ouest province, Cameroon. The phenotypic and genotypic identification methods gave concordant results for 99.5% of M. tuberculosis isolates (413 strains) and for 90% of Mycobacterium africanum isolates (41 strains). Mycobacterium bovis was isolat...
متن کاملCardiac angiosarcoma Report of a case
ABSTRACT Sarcomas are the most malignant tumors in the myocardium. Most common sarcoma is theangiosarcoma, classically located in the right atrium. Surgical resection is the primary treatmentof choice for these patients. In July 2003, an 18 years old man with chest pain and dyspnea,referred to the Imam Khomeini Hospital. Chest X-ray showed cardiac enlargement andtransthoracic echocardiography d...
متن کاملVirulence factors of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex
The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) consists of closely related species that cause tuberculosis in both humans and animals. This illness, still today, remains to be one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality throughout the world. The mycobacteria enter the host by air, and, once in the lungs, are phagocytated by macrophages. This may lead to the rapid elimination of the baci...
