Background Conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays are well‐established molecular techniques that can be integrated as standard diagnostic tools, especially in referral settings. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic potential of a multiplex PCR (mPCR) assay for the diagnosis of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL), skin tuberculosis, and ...

Conversion of Salicylate to Catechol by Mycobacterium Fortuitum [PDF]
SUMMARY: It was reported in a previous paper that most strains of Mycobacterium fortuitum blackened a modified Sauton medium agar containing 0.1% (w/v) sodium salicylate. The mechanism of this blackening has been investigated. When a modified Sauton medium containing 0.1% salicylate was inoculated with any of three strains of M.
