Hawaiian Volcanic Ash, an Airborne Fomite for Nontuberculous Mycobacteria

GeoHealth, Volume 8, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are environmentally acquired opportunistic pathogens that can cause chronic lung disease. Within the U.S., Hawai'i shows the highest prevalence rates of NTM lung infections. Here, we investigated a potential role for active volcanism at the Kīlauea Volcano located on Hawai'i Island in promoting NTM growth and ...
