First molecular epidemiology study of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Burkina Faso.
We conducted a molecular epidemiology study on 120 Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from patients presenting pulmonary tuberculosis (TB) in Burkina Faso. Classical antibiogram studies and genetic characterization, using mycobacterial interspersed repetitive-unit-variable-number tandem-repeat (MIRU-VNTR) typing and spoligotyping, were applied after culture. Molecular analysis of specific sign...
متن کاملSpoligotyping of Mycobacterium africanum, Burkina Faso
Using Ziehl-Neelsen-positive slides collected from tuberculosis diagnostic centers in Burkina Faso, we showed that 20% of 80 spoligotyping-positive DNA samples had a characteristic Mycobacterium africanum-specific genomic signature. This result suggests that M. africanum is still present in Burkina Faso at almost the same prevalence as 15-20 years ago.
متن کاملMycobacterium sherrisii Pulmonary Disease, Burkina Faso
To the Editor: Pulmonary disease caused by nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) is increasing worldwide. The most commonly recognized species, with minor geographic differences, are Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), M. kansasii, M. abscessus, and M. xenopi (1). Little is known about the role of NTM in pulmonary disease in countries with a high prevalence of tuberculosis (TB). In such settings, sm...
متن کاملAnti-mycobacterial activity of Withania somnifera and Pueraria tuberosa against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv

Anciently, herbal plants have established home remedies for many of common alignments, diagnostic procedures and preventive measures. Using this str...
متن کاملSurvival mechanisms of pathogenic Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis H(37)Rv is a highly successful pathogen and its success fully relies on its ability to utilize macrophages for its replication and, more importantly, the macrophage should remain viable to host the Mycobacterium. Despite the fact that these phagocytes are usually very effective in internalizing and clearing most of the bacteria, M. tuberculosis H(37)Rv has evolved a n...
