A Diagnostic Algorithm To Investigate Pyrazinamide and Ethambutol Resistance in Rifampin-Resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis Isolates in a Low-Incidence Setting

Phenotypic drug susceptibility testing (DST) for the two first-line tuberculosis drugs ethambutol and pyrazinamide is known to yield unreliable and inaccurate results. In this prospective study, we propose a diagnostic algorithm combining phenotypic DST with Sanger sequencing to inform clinical deci...
