Detection of I491F and V170F rpoB mutations associated with misdiagnosis of rifampicin resistance among patients with drug-susceptible tuberculosis treatment failure, Myanmar, 2022

Detection of I491F and V170F rpoB mutations associated with misdiagnosis of rifampicin resistance among patients with drug-susceptible tuberculosis treatment failure, Myanmar, 2022

Objective: Detecting rifampicin (RIF) resistance is crucial in selecting tuberculosis (TB) treatment. Recently, several studies reported that I491F and V170F rpoB mutations were found with a varying prevalence. This study aimed to find out RIF resistance missed by routine diagnostic assays using nex...
