Methods of phenotypic identification of non-tuberculous mycobacteria
Practical Laboratory Medicine, 2018 Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are composed of mycobacterial species other than the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. Initially thought to be mere contaminants when isolated from clinical specimens, literature is increasing by the day showing NTM ...

Non-tuberculous mycobacteria and the rise of Mycobacterium abscessus
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2020 Infections caused by non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are increasing globally and are notoriously difficult to treat due to intrinsic resistance of these bacteria to many common antibiotics. NTM are diverse and ubiquitous in the environment, with only a few species causing serious and often opportunistic infections in humans, including Mycobacterium ...

Treatment for non-tuberculous mycobacteria: challenges and prospects. [PDF]
Front MicrobiolNon-Tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are opportunistic environmental bacteria. Globally, NTM incidence is increasing and modeling suggests that, without new interventions, numbers will continue to rise. Effective treatments for NTM infections remain suboptimal. Standard therapy for Mycobacterium avium complex, the most commonly isolated NTM, requires a 3-

Non-tuberculous mycobacteria [PDF]
Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2010 The author reported a case of mycobacterial infection, which was diagnosed after a lengthy process. However, the case is actually not one of tuberculosis in the stricter sense: the confirmed species—Mycobacterium avium intracellulare complex—belongs to the group of non-tuberculous mycobacteria.

Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria: Seven-Year Experience of a Tertiary Hospital
Acta Médica Portuguesa, 2019 Introduction: Non-tuberculous mycobacteria are ubiquitous organisms. Precise determination of infection numbers is difficult, since reporting them to public health departments is frequently not mandatory; furthermore, isolating a non-tuberculous ...

Drug susceptibility of low growing non-tuberculous mycobacteria
Туберкулез и болезни лёгких, 2016 In order to investigate the spectrum of drug susceptibility of slowly growing of non-tuberculous mycobacteria and define minimum inhibiting concentrations (MIC) regarding the drug panel including anti-tuberculosis drugs and antimicrobial agents of wide ...
