Mycobacterium abscessus is the fast-growing mycobacteria (MCR) specie that most cause lung and extrapulmonary infections. This microorganism has the ability to persist in hospital settings and is one of the most resistant species. The drug clarithromycin is the basis of combined therapy against M. abscessus infections, However, therapeutic response is associated with mechanisms of induced…
Mycobacterium abscessus is nontuberculous mycobacteria that can cause lung disease similar to tuberculosis, but is also responsible for various types of pulmonary infections and health care associated diseases. This species can live in the environment and the biofilms formation is a strategy for dissemination and resistance to various compounds used for the disinfection of medical and hos…
The genus Nocardia is formed by a gram positive bacillus, filamentous, partially alcohol-acid resistant, and has its phylogeny defined according to the sequences of genes 16rRNA. The biochemical approach and the morphology analysis are inconclusive for the characterization of the genus and species. Molecular tools are then required for the confirmation of species and genus definition. Due…
