In vitro activity of bedaquiline against rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria [PDF]
, 2017 Bedaquiline (BDQ) has been proven to be effective in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. We hypothesized that BDQ could be a potential agent to treat nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection. The objective of this study was to evaluate

Equivalence of Mycobactins from Mycobacterium senegalense, Mycobacterium farcinogenes and Mycobacterium fortuitum [PDF]
Microbiology, 1985 Mycobactins were isolated from five strains designated Mycobacterium farcinogenes and a similar number designated Mycobacterium senegalense following growth under conditions of iron-limitation. These lipid-soluble iron-chelating compounds were characterized by a combination of thin-layer and high-performance liquid chromatography.
