Detection and identification of azithromycin resistance mutations on Treponema pallidum 23S rRNA gene by nested multiplex polymerase chain reaction

Background: Azithromycin-resistant strains of Treponema pallidum is associated with the mutation of 23S rRNA gene of T. pallidum. Although these strains are now prevalent in many countries, there is no laboratory test kit to detect and identify these mutations. Thus, in this study we developed a nes...
