Abstract excerpt
Identification of pathogenic Mycobacterium species is important for a successful diagnosis of mycobacteriosis. The purpose of this study was to develop an oligonucleotide array which could detect and differentiate mycobacteria to the species level by using the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence. Using a genus-specific probe and 20 species-specific probes including two M. avium-intracellulare complex...
