Assessment of Antimicrobial Resistance in M. leprae Strains From Kiribati

Key Points

The aim is to assess levels of antimicrobial resistance in M. leprae strains from Kiribati.
Analyzed skin biopsies for molecular assessment of antimicrobial resistance.
Evaluated prevalence of dapsone and rifampicin resistance in strains from Kiribati.
Detected moderate-level dapsone resistance with no rifampicin resistance observed.
Establishing a baseline antimicrobial resistance profile for M. leprae in Kiribati.

Abstract

Molecular analysis of skin biopsies revealed moderate-level dapsone resistance but no rifampicin resistance in Kiribati. Establishing this baseline AMR profile will enable a before-versus-after intervention analysis of antimicrobial resistance in M. leprae isolates in Kiribati.
