Isolation of a novel mycobacterium from an adolescent with cervical lymphadenitis

A Goodwin et al. Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis. 1998 Jul.

Abstract

A slow-growing mycobacterium was isolated from a cervical lymph node of an adolescent male. This isolate produced small, smooth, scotochromogenic colonies after 6 weeks of incubation at 25 degrees C and 30 degrees C (but not at 37 degrees C or 43 degrees C). The results of 16S-rRNA gene sequencing and high-performance liquid chromatography suggest that this isolate belongs to a hitherto unrecognised pathogenic species.
