Stable Mycobacterium avium infections of several Acanthamoeba strains were characterized by increased infection resistance of recent environmental isolates and reduced infectivity in the presence of other bacteria. Exposure of M. avium in coculture with Acanthamoeba castellanii to monochloramine yielded inactivation kinetics markedly similar to those observed for A. castellanii alone.
几种棘阿米巴菌株中稳定的鸟分枝杆菌感染的特征是最近环境分离株的感染抗性增加,并且在存在其他细菌的情况下感染性降低。在与棘阿米巴属castellanii 共培养时,用单氯胺处理鸟分枝杆菌,其失活动力学明显类似于单独观察到的棘阿米巴属castellanii。
