Ecology of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2021 Nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are opportunistic human pathogens that are widespread in the human environment. In fact, NTM surround humans. The basis for their widespread presence in soils and natural and human-engineered waters lies primarily in ...

Nontuberculous Mycobacteria as Sapronoses: A Review
Microorganisms, 2022 Mycobacteria are a unique group of microorganisms. They are characterised by exceptional adaptability and durability. They are capable of colonisation and survival even in very unfavourable conditions.

Nontuberculous Mycobacteria, Zambia
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2009 Clinical relevance of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) isolated from 180 chronically ill patients and 385 healthy controls in Zambia was evaluated to examine the contribution of these isolates to tuberculosis (TB)–like disease.

Identification of nontuberculous mycobacteria isolated from household showerheads of patients with nontuberculous mycobacteria [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 This study aimed to examine whether nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) inside household showerheads are identical to those in patients with NTM-pulmonary disease (PD) since household water is one of the potential NTM sources. Samples were obtained from 32

Genomic characterization of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 AbstractMycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium leprae have remained, for many years, the primary species of the genus Mycobacterium of clinical and microbiological interest. The other members of the genus, referred to as nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), have long been underinvestigated.
