Novel molecular transport medium used in combination with Xpert MTB/RIF ultra provides rapid detection of Mycobacterium bovis in African buffaloes

Scientific Reports, 2021
Mycobacterium bovis is the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) in wildlife. Confirmation of M. bovis infection relies on mycobacterial culture, which is time-consuming.

Bovine tuberculosis in Swedish farmed deer [PDF]

, 2004
Bovine tuberculosis (BTB) was introduced into Swedish farmed deer herds in 1987. Epidemiological investigations showed that 10 deer herds had become infected (July 1994) and a common source of infection, a consignment of 168 imported farmed fallow deer ...

Mycobacterium bovisInfection, United Kingdom

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2004
We describe the first documented spillover of bovine tuberculosis from animals into the human population of the United Kingdom since the resurgence of the disease in cattle in the country. This finding suggests that there may be a small risk for transmission to humans, making continued vigilance particularly necessary.

Tumor Immunotherapy and Microbiome: From Bench‐to‐Bedside Applications

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
The microbiome is related to the efficacy of immunotherapy and can be utilized to predict the efficacy and adverse reactions of immunotherapy. Microbiome‐targeted intervention strategies can improve the efficacy of ICI, but necessitating more comprehensive exploration.

Rapid method for Mycobacterium tuberculosis identification using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry analysis of mycolic acids [PDF]

, 2013
Mycolic acids (MAs), which play a crucial role in the architecture of mycobacterial cell walls, were analyzed using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. A targeted analysis based on the 10 most abundant and characteristic multiple reaction

Mycobacterium bovisInfection, Lyon, France

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
In a 5-year retrospective study, we used spoligotyping and mycobacterial interspersed repetitive units to type 13 strains of Mycobacterium bovis isolated from human sources. Despite the relatively high incidence of human tuberculosis caused by M. bovis (2%), these tools showed no clonal evolution and no relationships between the isolates.

Clinical Characteristics, Molecular Diagnosis, and Drug Resistance Profiles of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Infections: A Retrospective Analysis Using PCR Melting Curve Technology

Clinical and Translational Science, Volume 19, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are emerging global pathogens. This study aimed to analyze the clinical features, species distribution, and drug resistance profiles of NTM infections in a northern Chinese hospital. A retrospective cohort study included 1769 patients with suspected mycobacterial infection from August 2023 to July 2025.

PCR identification of Mycobacterium bovis BCG [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1997
The attenuated bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine strain is derived from a virulent strain of Mycobacterium bovis. BCG is difficult to differentiate from other strains of M. bovis and other members of the M. tuberculosis complex by conventional methods. Recently, a genomic region designated RD1 was found to be present in all virulent M. bovis and M.

Single‐Cell Insights Into Macrophage Subtypes in Pulmonary Infections

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, 14 January 2026.
This review highlights the dynamic plasticity of macrophages during pulmonary infections and proposes an integrative framework defining six functional subtypes: Inflam‐Ms, Hub‐Ms, Reg‐Ms, Prolif‐Ms, Memory‐Ms, and Senesc‐Ms. Single‐cell omics delineate their distinct roles in homeostasis and infection, refining our understanding of macrophage ...

Discriminatory ability of hypervariable variable number tandem repeat loci in population-based analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains, London, UK [PDF]

, 2009
To address conflicting results about the stability of variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) loci and their value in prospective molecular epidemiology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, we conducted a large prospective population-based analysis of all M ...
