Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To identify and characterise disease caused by non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in a tuberculosis-endemic region. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 133 NTM isolates cultivated using Mycobacteria Growth Indicator Tube 960 (MGIT 960) plus Löwenstein-Jensen (LJ) and identified using the NAP and PNBA tests were screened to species level using molecular methods. The 360-base pair (bp) region of the rpoB...
