Fifty Nicaraguan strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis were classified with a scheme of 9 specific phages. A preliminary distribution of characteristic phagotypes of the area is reported, with prevalence of phagotype I (intermedial) (66%), presence of phagotype A (34%) and absence of the rest of the types. Inclusions of phagotypes Bo4 and F-o-WJ within the classification scheme, as well as practical usefulness of the technique in studies directed to disease control, are valued.
