Abstract
A variable-number tandem-repeat genotyping method for Mycobacterium tuberculosis was converted to run in a multiplex PCR format on a 12-well microfluidic laboratory chip. Epidemiologically and genotypically distinct isolate clusters of M. tuberculosis were identified. This rapid genotyping method has potential application in smaller clinical laboratories and public health field investigations.Entities:
