Variation in drug penetration does not account for the natural resistance of <i>Mycobacterium abscessus</i> biofilms to antibiotic

2024-04-16

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterium abscessus , an inherently drug-resistant, opportunistic, nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) predominantly causes pulmonary infections in immunocompromised patients, notably those with cystic fibrosis. M. abscessus subspecies display distinct colony morphologies (rough and smooth), with the prevalent view that M. abscessus (smooth) is a persistent, biofilm-forming phenotype, whilst M. abscessus (ro...
