The global tuberculosis (TB) threat is diffi cult to evaluate in countries with scarce laboratory facilities where little is known about the genetic basis of drug resistance, including the rpoB RRDR (rifampicin resistance determining region) of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). The present study aimed at performing a preliminary evaluation of rpoB polymorphisms in a DNA set of MTC isolates from Guin...

Tuberculosis is a major health problem in Portugal. To begin characterizing the population structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, spoligotyping was used for the systematic typing, through consecutive sampling, of patient isolates from the Amadora-Sintra area of Greater Lisbon. Distribution amongst major spoligotype families, including the Latin American Mediterranean (LAM), T, Haarlem and Beijing, was compare...

O presente estudo populacional, que decorreu entre 1999 e 2003, foi baseado na utilização do Spoligotyping na genotipagem de 452 isolados do complexo Mycobacterium tuberculosis de doentes com tuberculose internados no Hospital Fernando Fonseca. Spoligotypes foram identificados como shared types (ST) recorrendo a uma base de dados internacional. Onze ST raros, não identificados na base de dados, acomodaram 8,4% ...

The differential diagnosis of Mycobacterium bovis is important in the control of transmission to the human population and also for treatment since M. bovis is naturally resistant to pyrazinamide. Eleven clinical isolates from the Fernando Fonseca Hospital with Spoligotypes indicative of M. bovis, through the absence of spacers 39-43 but that also counted with the absence of spacer 38, were analyzed. For the ide...

Spoligotyping was used in the genotyping of 219 isolates of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, from patients of the Hospital Fernando Fonseca. This technique, based on PCR methodology, analyses a region of the chromosome specific of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, the DR locus (Direct Repeat). With the aid of an international database, we showed that the predominant Spoligotypes belonged to the LAM...
