The CDC1551 strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was compared with the H37Rv strain of M. tuberculosis and the Ravenel strain of Mycobacterium bovis for virulence in mice. Although all three strains gave rise to the same level of stationary infection in major organs, mice infected with the Ravenel strain died much earlier from lung disease.
将结核分枝杆菌的CDC1551菌株与结核分枝杆菌的H37Rv菌株以及牛分枝杆菌的Ravenel菌株进行了小鼠毒力比较。尽管所有三种菌株在主要器官中引起的静止感染水平相同,但感染Ravenel菌株的小鼠因肺部疾病死亡的时间要早得多。
