Acanthamoeba polyphaga-Enhanced Growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis

11 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Mycobacterium smegmatis is a rapidly-growing mycobacterium causing rare opportunistic infections in human patients. It is present in soil and water environments where free-living amoeba also reside, but data regarding M. smegmatis-amoeba relationships have been contradictory from mycobacteria destruction to mycobacteria survival. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Using optic and electron microscopy and...
