Strain variation amongst clinical and potable water isolates of M. kansasii using automated repetitive unit PCR.

International journal of medical microbiology : IJMM - 1 May 2014

Thomson Rachel, Tolson Carla, Huygens Flavia, Hargreaves Megan

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium kansasii is a pulmonary pathogen that has been grown readily from municipal water, but rarely isolated from natural waters. A definitive link between water exposure and disease has not been demonstrated and the environmental niche for this organism is poorly understood. Strain typing of clinical isolates has revealed seven subtypes with Type 1 being highly clonal and responsible for most infections...
