Differences in Rate and Variability of Intracellular Growth of a Panel ofMycobacterium tuberculosisClinical Isolates within a Human Monocyte Model

Year: 2002

Type: article

Abstract: Significant differences were observed in the capacities of Mycobacterium tuberculosis clinical isolates to grow within human monocytes. Genotyping indicated that the four most rapidly growing isolates were members of the Beijing strain family. M. tuberculosis strain H37Rv provided more reproducible infection than the clinical isolates or M. tuberculosis Erdman.
