Abstract
Simultaneous infection with Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare in an AIDS patient was suspected after direct analysis of two BACTEC 13A blood cultures with the Gen-Probe kit for M. avium complex. A mixed infection was confirmed by evaluating isolated colonies. The Gen-Probe kit may provide a simple technique for detecting mixed M. avium-M. intracellulare infections.Entities:
