The identification of the molecular correlates of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis have engendered the development of DNA-based assays for the identification of drug-resistant TB. This review summarizes the recent discoveries concerning resistance to isoniazid, rifampin, pyrazinamide, ethambutol, streptomycin, amikacin, kanamycin and the quinolones.", pages = "S4-S10(1)", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/iuatld/ijtld/2000/00000004/a00102s1/art00003" }
