| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) are opportunistic pathogens. Patients infected with NTM are increasing year after year. A main niche of NTM is aquatic environments including municipal water supplies. However, the treatment methods for cultivation of M. tuberculosis cause decrease of viable NTM significantly. It is difficult in culture to detect NTM quantitatively. Therefore, we develop a novel treatment method for selective cultivation of NTM.
On the basis of our results, ta novel treatment method is useful for the semi-quantitative detection of NTM in culture
