Mycobacterium marinum

Rifampicin is highly active against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Among atypical mycobacteria, it is active against Mycobacterium kansasii, Mycobacterium marinum, and most types of Mycobacterium scrofulaceum and Mycobacterium xenopi. Sensitivity of other mycobacteria varies. Rifampicin also exhibits activity against Mycobacterium leprae. [Pg.528]

Fourteen different reference strains of mycobacteria from Central JALMA Institute of Leprosy, Agra, India, isolated from clinical specimens, have been screened for the in vitro studies. Among these were several members of slow-growing atypical mycobacteria, e.g., Mycobacterium marinum 50, Mycobacterium scrofulaceum 1323, Mycobacterium gordonae 1324, Mycobacterium ter-rae 1450, Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37RV 16, and H37Rv (102, Kl, K2). Two other strains, known as the ICRC [41] and Skinsnes bacillus [31], which had been isolated from human leproma and found to be the members of the Mycobacterium avium-intracellulare-scrofulaceum, were also included in this study. [Pg.108]

Not all mycobacterial infections are caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis or Mycobacterium leprae. These atypical mycobacteria require treatment with secondary medications as well as other chemotherapeutic agents. For example, Mycobacterium marinum causes skin granulomas, and effective drugs in the treatment of the infection are rifampin or minocycline. Mycobacterium fortuitum causes skin ulcers, and the medications recommended for treatment are ethambutol, cycloserine, and rifampin in combination with amikacin. [Pg.183]

M. kansasii and M. tuberculosis cause similar disease. Therapy of the former with isoniazid, rifampin, and ethambutol has been successful. Mycobacterium marinum causes skin lesions. [Pg.792]

Mycobacterium marinum is the agent of a cosmopolitan, atypical mycobacteriosis, often mentioned in the literature under the name of aquarium granuloma. Its natural habitat is water, particularly enclosures of water that are not often replenished. It is especially prevalent in heated water in temperate climates and in the sea and natural pools in warmer regions. [Pg.185]

In Mycobacterium marinum infection (Califano et al. 1998), called fish-tank granuloma or swimming pool granuloma, the association of skin infection with aquariums and tropical fish has been noted. A prick from a rose thorn might also cause the infection. This is characterized by the presence of one papule, nodule or erythematous plaque with a verrucous surface on the dorsum of the distal phalanx of the finger. [Pg.263]

In general, discovery of new enzymes might facilitate the synthesis of a variety of industrially relevant methylated products, natural or artificial. For example, an OMT from Mycobacterium marinum that has been characterized recently converts fatty... [Pg.416]

The reduction of carboxylic acids to aldehydes is of preparative interest and a number of microbial carboxylic acid reductases (CARs) (aldehyde oxidoreductases) have been found since the discovery of the tungsten-containing CAR that reduced nonactivated carboxylic acids to the corresponding aldehydes with no further reduction of the aldehydes to alcohols [83]. The reduction of vanillic add to the aldehyde vanillin has been achieved in vitro with the CAR from Nocardia sp. [84] and as part of a de novo biosynthesis in yeast [85]. A CAR from Mycobacterium marinum has been discovered that can convert a wide range of aliphatic fatty acids (C6-C18) into corresponding aldehydes [86]. [Pg.8]
