Lipid analysis allows the specific detection of M. leprae among various other bacteria isolated from leprosy lesions. In this report mycolates and glycolipid compositions were used for such a discrimination. Comparative studies of the lipid composition of tissue fragments from different organs of experimentally infected armadillos, and of cultivable strains isolated from these tissues showed that the last ones did not multiply extensively in the tissues of the animals.
脂质分析能够在从麻风病损中分离出的各种其他细菌中特异性地检测出麻风分枝杆菌。在本报告中,霉菌酸和糖脂成分被用于这种鉴别。对实验感染犰狳不同器官的组织碎片以及从这些组织中分离出的可培养菌株的脂质组成进行的比较研究表明,后者在动物组织中并未大量繁殖。
