However, the strains responsible for the epidemic of TB have been poorly characterized. The aim of this study was to characterize the causative agent of TB isolates circulating in Kassala and Gezira States during 2011-2012.Method: Ninety two Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) strains were isolated from sputum samples of pulmonary TB patients, attending the Teaching Hospitals in Kassala and Gezira states. Molecular identification was performed using region of difference 9 (RD9) deletion and spoligotyping methods. Spoligotype patterns were compared with those listed in the international SITVIT2 spoligotyping database.Results: The results determined the circulation of Euro-American, Central Asian, and Indo-Oceanic Lineages. They were clustered in the following clades: Manu2 (64.8%), CAS (22.7%), EAI (4.5), LAM2 (2.3%), H3 (1.1%), T (1.1%), T3-ETH (1.1%), T5-RUS1 (1.1%). Comparison with the international multi-marker database SITVIT2, 76.1% of isolates matched the database, while 23.9% of the isolates were not represented in SITVIT2 (orphans). SIT54 (Manu2) was the most common strain circulating in the two states.Conclusion: The study showed that a large variety of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) genotypes were circulating in the two states. Further studies on identification and molecular characterization of mycobacterial are needed to understand the biodiversity, rate of transmission and the associated risk factors of MTB in Sudan.","PeriodicalId":92355,"journal":{"name":"European academic research","volume":"4 9","pages":"7842-7855"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5966043/pdf/nihms914983.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36135528","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
