Pathobiological significance of colony morphology in Mycobacterium avium complex.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Aug 1996

Reddy V M, Luna-Herrera J, Gangadharam P R

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) strains are known to exhibit variation in colony morphology. In addition to the smooth transparent (ST), smooth opaque (SO) and rough opaque (RO), which are the most common morphological forms, intermediate (IM) and pin point (PP) forms were also occasionally observed. In order to understand the pathobiological significance of these different colony forms, we investigated their...
