Targeted Hybridization of IS6110 Fingerprints Identifies the W-Beijing Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains among Clinical Isolates

Targeted IS6110-based RFLP genotyping can be applied to rapidly identify specific groups of biomedically/epidemiologically relevant Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates. One such group is the W-Beijing strain family (also known as Beijing/W), implicated in significant nosocomial and communit...
