Arylsulfatase activity for differentiating Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1990
Arylsulfatase activities (96-h reaction) of various strains of Mycobacterium avium and M. intracellulare, as identified by a DNA probe test, were measured. The enzyme activities of M. avium strains were significantly lower [corrected] than those of M. intracellulare strains (P less than 0.005 to P less than 0.025).

A new glycolipid from Mycobacterium avium—Mycobacterium intracellulare complex

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Lipids and Lipid Metabolism, 1992
From a nonpolar lipid fraction of Mycobacterium avium--Mycobacterium intracellulare complex cell mass, a new glycolipid was obtained, which was shown to be 5-mycoloyl-beta-arabinofuranosyl-(1-->2)-5-mycoloyl-alpha-ar abinofuranosyl- (1-->1')-glycerol.

Presental Cellulitis Caused by Mycobacterium intracellulare

Ophthalmology, 1982
A case of preseptal cellulitis caused by Mycobacterium intracellulare is presented. A 56-year-old white woman developed erythema, induration, and tenderness of the lids of her right eye after chalazion removal, which did not respond to three weeks of broad spectrum antibiotics. Incision and drainage with biopsy revealed granuloma, and acid-fast bacilli

Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare infection in mammals.

Revue scientifique et technique (International Office of Epizootics), 2001
Mycobacterium avium subsp. avium and M. intracellulare are ubiquitous organisms in the environment. The reservoir of M. avium subsp. avium is generally accepted to be environmental, in particular, water and soil are sources of the organism. In contrast to M. avium infection in wild and domestic birds, M.

Comparison of Mycobacterium lentiflavum and Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare Complex Lymphadenitis

Pediatric Infectious Disease Journal, 2014
Mycobacterium lentiflavum is considered a rare pathogen causing nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) lymphadenitis.A multicenter, retrospective study was performed in immunocompetent children

A Clinical Comparison Between Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare Infections

Chest, 1993
Susceptibility, clinical features, and response to treatment were compared between 29 cases of Mycobacterium avium infection and 43 cases of Mycobacterium intracellulare infection detected in the Nagasaki (Japan) area and identified by a DNA probe method. In vitro susceptibility of two species to antituberculous agents was determined by a microdilution

Mycobacterium avium intracellulare otomastoiditis: case report and literature review

European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2006
Otomastoiditis caused by Mycobacterium avium intracellulare (MAI) is rare. Sub-optimal management of this condition can lead to significant morbidity and serious damage to the middle ear. Diagnosis is difficult, especially since most physicians are not familiar with the mode of presentation and symptoms.

Antigens of the Mycobacterium avium, Micobacterium intracellulare complex

European Journal of Epidemiology, 1991
In the past decade, the clinical significance of the Mycobacterium avium, Myobacterium intracellulare complex (MAC) has increased dramatically primarily because of the association between the MAC and the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Recent hospital reports have suggested that about one-half of AIDS patients in the United States are ...

Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare Infection

1993
M. avium-intracellulare infection in nonhuman primates begins as a primary infection of the small and large intestines and draining lymph nodes. Early in the course of the infection, lesions may not be discernible grossly. In advanced cases, however, lesions may become widely disseminated and involve the spleen, liver, kidney, heart, lungs, and other ...

[Enzymatic profile of Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare].

Kekkaku : [Tuberculosis], 1991
The characterization of extracellular enzymatic activities of Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare which were identified by DNA probe (Gen-Probe, Cal., USA) was carried out using the API ZYM system (API, La Balme Les Grottes, France). The enzymatic activities of M.
