We identified an unusual strain of mycobacteria from two patients with pulmonary tuberculosis by its smooth, glossy morphotype and, primarily, its genotypic characteristics. Spoligotyping and restriction fragment length polymorphism typing were carried out with the insertion sequence IS6110 patterns. All known cases of tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium canetti have been contracted in the Horn of Africa.
我们从两名肺结核患者身上鉴定出一种不寻常的分枝杆菌菌株,依据其光滑、有光泽的形态类型,主要是其基因型特征。使用插入序列IS6110模式进行了寡核苷酸分型和限制性片段长度多态性分型。所有已知的由堪氏分枝杆菌引起的结核病病例均在非洲之角感染。
