Distribution of hsp65 PCR-restriction enzyme analysis patterns among Mycobacterium avium complex isolates in Thailand
A total of 227 clinical Mycobacterium avium complex isolates from Thailand were differentiated into species and types by using PCR-restriction enzyme analysis of hsp65. The distribution of types showed the predominance of M. avium I (77%) in blood specimens, whereas M. intracellulare I was more comm...
