Mycobacterium Avium Complex
These two species are difficult to differentiate and therefore they are also referred to collectively as Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare (MAI) . Although it might more logically be termed the Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare complex such nomenclature has not been adopted. They are both opportunistic pathogens that affect the immunocompromised, particularly HIV-positive individuals. They ca...

متن کاملIdentification of various serovar strains of Mycobacterium avium complex by using DNA probes specific for Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare.
Reference strains of the Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) belonging to serovars 1 to 28 were examined with DNA probes (Gen Probe Rapid Diagnostic System for the MAC; Gen Probe Inc., San Diego, Calif.) specific for either M. avium or Mycobacterium intracellulare. This study revealed that the earlier designations of the MAC serovars, in which serovars 1 to 3 and 4 to 28 were regarded as M. avium...
متن کاملProduction of multivalent fluorescent antisera for identification of organisms in the Mycobacterium avium-Mycobacterium intracellulare complex.
Antisera to ten strains of mycobacteria in the Mycobacterium avium-Mycobacterium intracellulare group were obtained by injecting rabbits with ultraviolet light-killed cells. The antisera were conjugated with fluorescein isothiocyanate and used in the direct fluorescent antibody test. Individual antisera reacted specifically with the mycobacterial serotype used to produce them. The antisera were...
