BACKGROUND: Information on genotypic with comparison of phenotypic drug sensitivity test of anti-tuberculosis (TB) has been reported in several studies, which have variable results. The present study aimed to assess the Genotype MTBDRsl version 2.0/Line probe assay (LPA) for the detection of fluoroquinolones (FQ) and aminoglycosides (AMGs) resistance mutations among drug-resistant Mycobacterium TB (MTB) strains and also to compare the patterns of genotypic mutations of gyrA/B, rrs, and eis with mycobacteria growth indicator tube (MGIT 960)...
