The nontuberculous mycobacteria are species different from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In the past these organisms were referred to as “atypical” (as they were thought to be unusual M. tuberculosis strains), as “anonymous”, as “tuberculoid”, or as “opportunistic”, but actually they are widely known as environmental mycobacteria because their peculiar ...

This chapter focuses on nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), organisms that are ubiquitous in the environment and are thus referred as “environmental mycobacteria” by some experts. Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC), which includes M. kansasii, M. fortuitum, and M. abscessus, is the most common NTM associated with human disease in the United States.

The nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), especially Mycobacterium avium complex, are being recognized with increasing frequency as clinical pathogens, not only as a cause of disseminated disease in patients with AIDS but also as a cause of chronic lung disease in patients without AIDS. These infections have traditionally been difficult and frustrating to

The nontuberculous mycobacteria are for the most part ubiquitous environmental organisms that only rarely cause disease in humans. Therefore, the normal host defense against these organisms must be quite robust, as exposure is universal and disease is rare.

Abstract Mycobacteria are Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacilli comprising the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (TB) and non-tuberculous mycobacteria. Infection, usually via inhalation, is often asymptomatic but can lead to primary TB or to latent TB infection which can later develop into ‘reactivation’ or ‘post-primary’ active disease.

A brief review is presented of those properties of mycobacteria (genus Mycobacterium) which have a bearing on human medicine. The properties are set out in the form of tables covering the important cultural and biochemical tests used in taxonomy, resistance vs.
