A Co - opera tive Numerical Analysis of Mycobacterium gastri , Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium marinurn
A co-operative taxonomic study has been performed on slowly growing photochromogenic mycobacteria (Runyon Group I) and closely related organisms. Phenetic data on 54 strains, studied in seven laboratories, were collected and analysed by numerical taxonomic methods. Immunological properties and phage susceptibility patterns were analysed independently to establish correlation with numerical clas...
متن کاملDifferentiation between Mycobacterium kansasii and Mycobacterium marinum by gas-liquid chromatographic analysis of cellular fatty acids.
Comparison of the cellular fatty acids of 10 strains of Mycobacterium marinum and 35 strains of Mycobacterium kansasii revealed similarities within each species but differences between these two photochromogenic mycobacteria. A branched-chain fatty acid characteristic of M. kansasii was found in trace amounts in 2 of the 10 strains of M. marinum.
متن کاملIdentification of Mycobacterium kansasii by using a DNA probe (AccuProbe) and molecular techniques.
The newly formulated Mycobacterium kansasii AccuProbe was evaluated, and the results obtained with the new version were compared to the results obtained with the old version of this test by using 116 M. kansasii strains, 1 Mycobacterium gastri strain, and 19 strains of several mycobacterial species. The sensitivity of this new formulation was 97.4% and the specificity was 100%. Still, three M. ...
متن کاملChemical and serological relationships between the heteropolysaccharides of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium kansasii.
The identity of a heteropolysaccharide from cell walls of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra with Seibert's tuberculopolysaccharide I was demonstrated by thin-layer chromatography, chemical analysis, and antigenic tests. The polysaccharide of M. kansasii was shown to be identical with that of M. tuberculosis. Defatted cells were disintegrated by ultrasonic treatment in the presence of glass beads...
متن کاملSeminal vesiculitis due to Mycobacterium gastri leading to male infertility.
Tuberculosis of the genitourinary tract is a well-known cause of male infertility. However, infertility from infection by nontuberculous mycobacterium has not been reported. Herein, we present a case of seminal vesiculitis due to Mycobacterium gastri in a diabetic patient leading to male infertility. Improvement in semen quality was noticed after 6 months of therapy with isoniazid, ethambutol a...
