Pyrolysis Mass Spectrometry: A New Method to Differentiate Between the Mycobacteria of the "Tuberculosis Complex" and Other Mycobacteria [PDF]
Microbiology, 1981 Pyrolysis mass spectrometry (p.m.s.) was applied to differentiate 91 coded mycobacteria as belonging to either the 'tuberculosis complex' (M. tuberculosis, M. bovis and M. bovis BCG) or to other species of Mycobacterium. Strains were analysed in batches; in each batch three strains each of M. tuberculosis, M. bovis and M.

Interdisciplinary Journal of Epidemiology and Public Health, 2021 Introduction: Pulmonary disease produced by nontuberculous mycobacteria and pulmonary tuberculosis can share clinical signs and symptoms. It is important to discern one from the other in order to provide the proper treatment and programmatic management.

Increasing Incidence of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria, Taiwan, 2000–2008
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010 To assess the species distribution and epidemiologic trends of nontuberculous mycobacteria, we examined isolates from patients in Taiwan. During 2000–2008, the proportion increased significantly from 32.3% to 49.8%. Associated disease incidence increased

Rapid method for Mycobacterium tuberculosis identification using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry analysis of mycolic acids [PDF]
, 2013 Mycolic acids (MAs), which play a crucial role in the architecture of mycobacterial cell walls, were analyzed using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. A targeted analysis based on the 10 most abundant and characteristic multiple reaction

In vitro activity of bedaquiline against rapidly growing nontuberculous mycobacteria [PDF]
, 2017 Bedaquiline (BDQ) has been proven to be effective in the treatment of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis. We hypothesized that BDQ could be a potential agent to treat nontuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infection. The objective of this study was to evaluate

Genomic Profiling of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains, Myanmar
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2021 Multidrug resistance is a major threat to global elimination of tuberculosis (TB). We performed phenotypic drug-susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing for 309 isolates from 342 consecutive patients who were given a diagnosis of TB in Yangon ...
