Identification of Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium chelonei.
The study of 52 strains of rapidly growing mycobacteria showed that Mycobacterium fortuitum and M. chelonei were clearly distinguished by the aid of seven key tests (nitrate reductase, iron uptake, beta-glucosidase, penicillinase, growth on fructose, resistance to pipemidic acid, and resistance to capreomycin) and by analysis of their respective mycolic acids. However, the subdivision of these ...

The survival response of Mycobacterium avium to ultraviolet irradiation demonstrated the presence of a photoreactivating repair system.
متن کاملIn vitro activity of TP-271 against Mycobacterium abscessus, Mycobacterium fortuitum, and Nocardia species.
The in vitro activities of TP-271, a novel fluorocycline antimicrobial, against 22 isolates of Mycobacterium abscessus, 22 isolates of Mycobacterium fortuitum, and 19 isolates of Nocardia spp. were studied by a microtiter broth dilution method. The MIC(90)s for M. abscessus, M. fortuitum, and Nocardia spp. were 0.5 μg/ml, 0.03 μg/ml, and 8 μg/ml, respectively. TP-271 was significantly more acti...
متن کاملComparative pathogenesis of Mycobacterium marinum and Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
A thorough understanding of Mycobacterium tuberculosis pathogenesis in humans has been elusive in part because of imperfect surrogate laboratory hosts, each with its own idiosyncrasies. Mycobacterium marinum is the closest genetic relative of the M. tuberculosis complex and is a natural pathogen of ectotherms. In this review, we present evidence that the similar genetic programmes of M. marinum...
متن کاملDifferential identification of Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium chelonei.
Mycobacterium fortuitum and Mycobacterium chelonei are distinguished unambiguously by the combined use of five test characters: nitrate reductase, beta-glucosidase, acid production from fructose, penicillinase, and trehalase. Typically, M. fortuitum was nitrate reductase positive, beta-glucosidase positive; M. chelonei was nitrate reductase negative, beta-glucosidase negative, penicillinase pos...
