Molecular characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains resistant to isoniazid

Conclusion In terms of this study, we characterized the mutations involved in resistance to isoniazid. katG S315T was by far the most frequent mutation, followed by C-15T. The frequency of these mutations was concordant with those reported in literature including those in intermediate tuberculosis endemic countries.
