Drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis: Epidemiology and role of morphological alterations
Abstract
In this brief review, various forms of drug-resistant tuberculosis (DR-TB) are discussed. The focus of the study is to highlight morphological alterations of DR-TB bacilli at the cellular level.
Keywords: Drug-resistant tuberculosis; Epidemiology; Morphology.
