13. Use of Mycobacterial Interspersed Repetitive Unit-Variable-Number Tandem Repeat Typing To Examine Genetic Diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Singapore
Strain typing using variable-number tandem repeats of mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units (MIRU-VNTR) is a powerful tool for studying the epidemiology and genetic relationships of Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates. For this study, isolates from 291 patients in Singapore were genotyped by this method. One hundred sixty-six distinct MIRU-VNTR pattern
