The advent of multidrug resistant strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MDR-TB) has led to increased fears of untreatable infections by serious pathogens. Rifampicin, streptomycin and, occasionally, the quinolones are drugs used in the treatment of mycobacterial infections and resistance to those agents is as described previously. There...

Fluorescein-5-maleimide also has been used to study the assembly dynamics of mycobacterium tuberculosis (Chen et al., 2007), to study monomers and dimers of nhaa Na+/H+ antiporter of E. coli (Rimon et al., 2007), and to investigate the regulation of the protein disulfide proteome by mitochondria (Yang et al., 2007).

Flavonoid sulphates such as quercetin 3,7-di-O-methyl 3-sulphate and kaempferol 7-0-methyl 3-sulphate, which inhihited the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Klebsiella pneumoniae, were isolated from the -hutanol fraction of 80% methanol extract of Argyreia speciosa (Burm. f) Boj.

To give the reader an idea of the practical effort of the immobilization strategies discussed, applications of these DNA chips are also included, e.g. with one chapter describing the immobilization step included in a short oligonucleotide ligation assay on DNA chip (SOLAC) to identify mutations in a gene of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in chnic isolates indicating rifampin resistance.
