A definition of the Mycobacterium avium complex for taxonomical and clinical purposes, a review

20 Sept 2018

Abstract excerpt

Nontuberculous mycobacteria, particularly the Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) bacteria, are increasingly recognized as opportunistic pathogens of humans. As a result, studies on antibiotic treatment and taxonomy of the MAC are intensifying, but an updated definition of what constitutes the MAC, either for taxonomical studies or for clinical purposes, is lacking. On the basis of literature review and...
