Abstract

Objective: To detect levofloxacin (LFX) and moxifloxacin (MFX) resistance among rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis (RR-TB) isolates, and predict the resistance level based on specific mutations in gyrA and gyrB genes. Methods: A total of 686 RR-TB isolates were collected from Chinese Drug Resistance Surveillance Program from 2013 to 2020. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of 12 anti-TB drugs were acquired using the broth microdilution method, followed by whole genome sequencing (WGS) analysis. Results: Among the 686 RR isolates, the most prevalent resistance was to isoniazid (80.5 %)
