Pyrolysis mass spectrometry in epidemiological and population genetic studies of Haemophilus influenzae.

abstract：:Multi-drug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a major public-health problem, because treatment is complicated and patients remain infectious for months or years, despite receiving the best available therapy. To gain better understanding of MDR-TB, a retrospective study was initiated to determine the level of drug resi...
