  • A Prospective Multicenter Study of Laboratory CrossContamination of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Cultures
    A Prospective, Multicenter Study of Laboratory Cross-Contamination of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Cultures
    Jasmer, Robert M. ;
    Roemer, Marguerite
    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1260-1263.
    A prospective study of false-positive cultures of Mycobacterium tuberculosis that resulted from laboratory cross-contamination was conducted at three laboratories in California. Laboratory cross-contamination accounted for 2% of the positive cultures. Cross-contamination should be a concern when an isolate matches the genotype of another sample pro ...

    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1347-1349.
    We present a short summary of recent observations on the global distribution of the major clades of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex, the causative agent of tuberculosis. This global distribution was defined by data-mining of an international spoligotyping database, SpolDB3. This database contains 11708 patterns from as many clinical isolates ...

  • Impact of Genotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis on Public Health Practice in Massachusetts
    Impact of Genotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis on Public Health Practice in Massachusetts
    Miller, Ann C. ;
    Sharnprapai, Sharon
    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1285-1289.
    Massachusetts was one of seven sentinel surveillance sites in the National Tuberculosis Genotyping and Surveillance Network. From 1996 through 2000, isolates from new patients with tuberculosis (TB) underwent genotyping. We describe the impact that genotyping had on public health practice in Massachusetts and some limitations of the technique. Thro ...

  • Molecular Typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains with a Common TwoBand IS6110 Pattern
    Molecular Typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains with a Common Two-Band IS6110 Pattern
    Lok, Kerry H. ;
    Benjamin, William H.
    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1303-1305.
    We conducted a program of population-based molecular typing of all Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates obtained in Alabama since 1994. Of 2452 isolates, 1013 (41%) had fewer than 6 bands of IS6110; 348 (14%) had a single two-band pattern (JH2). With conventional epidemiologic methods, we identified three groups of related patients with JH2 isolates ...

    Molecular Epidemiology of Multidrug-Resistant Tuberculosis, New York City, 1995–1997
    Munsiff, Sonal S. ;
    Bassoff, Trina
    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1230-1238.
    From January 1, 1995, to December 31, 1997, we reviewed records of all New York City patients who had multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDRTB); we performed insertion sequence (IS) 6110-based DNA genotyping on the isolates. Secondary genotyping was performed for low IS6110 copy band strains. Patients with identical DNA pattern strains were consider ...

    Genomewide Pattern of Synonymous Nucleotide Substitution in Two Complete Genomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
    Hughes, Austin L. ;
    Friedman, Robert
    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1342-1346.
    Comparison of the pattern of synonymous nucleotide substitution between two complete genomes of Mycobacterium tuberculosis at 3298 putatively orthologous loci showed a mean percent difference per synonymous site of 0.000328 0.000022. Although 80.5% of loci showed no synonymous or nonsynonymous nucleotide differences, the level of polymorphism obser ...

    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1239-1245.
    We used molecular genotyping to further understand the epidemiology and transmission patterns of tuberculosis (TB) in Massachusetts. The study population included 983 TB patients whose cases were verified by the Massachusetts Department of Public Health between July 1, 1996, and December 31, 2000, and for whom genotyping results and information on ...

    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1294-1302.
    As part of the National Tuberculosis and Genotyping Surveillance Network, isolates obtained from all new cases of tuberculosis occurring in seven geographically separate surveillance sites from 1996 through 2000 were genotyped. A total of 10883 isolates were fingerprinted by the IS6110-restriction fragment length polymorphism method, yielding 6128 ...

    Braden, Christopher R.
    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1192-1196.
    The National Tuberculosis Genotyping and Surveillance Network was established in 1996 to perform a 5-year, prospective study of the usefulness of genotyping Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates to tuberculosis control programs. Seven sentinel sites identified all new cases of tuberculosis, collected information on patients and contacts, and obtained ...

  • Mycobacterium tuberculosis Transmission between Cluster Members with Similar Fingerprint Patterns
    Mycobacterium tuberculosis Transmission between Cluster Members with Similar Fingerprint Patterns

    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1257-1259.
    Molecular epidemiologic studies provide evidence of transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis within clusters of patients whose isolates share identical IS6110-DNA fingerprint patterns. However, M. tuberculosis transmission among patients whose isolates have similar but not identical DNA fingerprint patterns (i.e., differing by a single band) has ...

    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1210-1215.
    Quality assessment exercises were conducted to evaluate the reproducibility of IS6110 DNA fingerprinting performed by eight laboratories in the National Tuberculosis Genotyping and Surveillance Network. Three panels, each with 8 to 16 isolates, were typed at all laboratories, resulting in 280 images. When the pattern obtained by the majority for ea ...

    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1314-1319.
    DNA fingerprinting of Mycobacterium tuberculosis--a relatively new laboratory technique--offers promise as a powerful aid in the prevention and control of tuberculosis (TB). Established in 1996 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the National Tuberculosis Genotyping and Surveillance Network was a 5-year prospective, population- ...

    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1197-1209.
    We conducted a population-based study to assess demographic and risk-factor correlates for the most frequently occurring Mycobacterium tuberculosis genotypes from tuberculosis (TB) patients. The study included all incident, culture-positive TB patients from seven sentinel surveillance sites in the United States from 1996 to 2000. M. tuberculosis is ...

    Jaffe, Harold W.
    Nov 2002 | Emerg Infect Dis. 8(11):1188-1191.
    Our understanding of tuberculosis (TB) transmission dynamics has been refined by genotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains. The National Tuberculosis Genotyping and Surveillance Network was designed and implemented to systematically evaluate the role of genotyping technology in improving TB prevention and control activities. Genotyping prove ...

    DNA Fingerprinting of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Isolates from Epidemiologically Linked Case Pairs
    Bennett, Diane E. ;
    Onorato, Ida M.
    Nov 2002 | Emerging Infectious Diseases. 8(11):1124-1129.
    DNA fingerprinting was used to evaluate epidemiologically linked case pairs found during routine tuberculosis (TB) contact investigations in seven sentinel sites from 1996 to 2000. Transmission was confirmed when the DNA fingerprints of source and secondary cases matched. Of 538 case pairs identified, 156 (29%) did not have matching fingerprints. C ...

    November 2002 | Emerging Infectious Diseases. 8(11):1152-1156.
    In 1998-1999, the Baltimore TB control program detected a cluster of 21 tuberculosis (TB) cases. Patients reported frequent travel to various East Coast cities. An investigation was conducted to determine whether transmission of the same Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain was occurring in these other localities. A collaborative investigation among f ...
