Development of new molecular genetic tools to study "Mycobacterium ulcerans" infection (Buruli ulcer) [PDF]
Buruli ulcer is an infectious disease caused by an environmental pathogen, Mycobacterium ulcerans, which is the third major mycobacterial pathogen of man, after M. tuberculosis and M. leprae.

The diversity and distribution of Mycobacterium species in varying ecological and climatic environments [PDF]
The species within the genus Mycobacterium are commonly detected in a variety of environments including soil, water and dust. Many species within the group are capable of causing opportunistic diseases and are hypothesised to be responsible for the ...

Duration of Immunity against Mycobacterium bovis following Neonatal Vaccination with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Danish: Significant Protection against Infection at 12, but Not 24, Months [PDF]
Vaccination of neonatal calves with Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) induces a significant degree of protection against bovine tuberculosis, caused by infection with virulent M. bovis.

Chronic mycobacterial meningitis due to Mycobacterium chelonae: a case report
We report a case of chronic meningitis due to Mycobacterium chelonae. This organism is a rapidly growing Mycobacterium (RGM) and can be found worldwide in environmental sources such as soil, dust, and water. M. chelonae is an uncommon cause of meningitis;

Broad heparin-binding haemagglutinin-specific cytokine and chemokine response in infants following Mycobacterium bovis BCG vaccination. [PDF]
: Heparin-binding haemagglutinin (HBHA)-specific immune responses have been linked to protection against tuberculosis (TB). We investigated the hypothesis that BCG vaccination of human infants primes an HBHA-specific response, using multiplex to measure ...

First Detection of Mycobacterium ulcerans DNA in Environmental Samples from South America
The occurrences of many environmentally-persistent and zoonotic infections are driven by ecosystem changes, which in turn are underpinned by land-use modifications that alter the governance of pathogen, biodiversity and human interactions.
