Detection of Mycobacterium chimaera in medical device water samples by customised real time PCR using a InGenius platform
Abstract Mycobacterium chimaera, belonging to the Mycobacterium avium complex, is an opportunistic environmental mycobacterium which has been isolated from medical device water samples such as Heater Cooler Units (HCU). Laboratories currently use culture-based diagnostic methods to detect M. chimaer...
