Differentiation of Mycobacterium chelonei from M. fortuitum by ciprofloxacin susceptibility.

C H Collins, M D Yates, A H Uttley.   

Abstract

Seventy-five strains of Mycobacterium fortuitum were inhibited by 3.0 mg/l ciprofloxacin but 36 strains of M. chelonei were resistant. The results correlated well with those obtained by the nitratase test. The ciprofloxacin sensitivity test is a useful supplement to the tests used to identify these two species.
