Comparison of Variable-Number Tandem-Repeat Markers typing and IS1245 Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism fingerprinting of Mycobacterium avium subsp. hominissuis from human and porcine origins

Abstract Background Animal mycobacterioses are regarded as a potential zoonotic risk and cause economical losses world wide.M.avium subsp.hominissuis is a slow-growing subspecies found in mycobacterial infected humans and pigs and therefore rapid and discriminatory typing methods are needed for epidemiological studies.The genetic similarity of M.av
