Molecular Identification of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria from Clinical Sources by hsp65 PRA and Sequence Analysis

Identification of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) species is becoming increasingly important as differences in antimicrobial susceptibility of these microorganisms may affect treatment options. In this study, PCR-RFLP analysis (PRA) of the gene encoding 65-kD heat shock protein (hsp65) was used fo...
