Culture-Independent PCR Detection and Differentiation of <i>Mycobacteria</i> spp. in Antemortem Respiratory Samples from African Elephants (<i>Loxodonta Africana</i>) and Rhinoceros (<i>Ceratotherium Simum</i>, <i>Diceros Bicornis</i>) in South Africa

Culture-Independent PCR Detection and Differentiation of <i>Mycobacteria</i> spp. in Antemortem Respiratory Samples from African Elephants (<i>Loxodonta Africana</i>) and Rhinoceros (<i>Ceratotherium Simum</i>, <i>Diceros Bicornis</i>) in South Africa

Since certain <i>Mycobacterium tuberculosis</i> complex (MTBC) members, such as <i>M. bovis</i>, are endemic in specific South African wildlife reserves and zoos, cases of clinically important nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in wildlife may be neglected. Additionally, due t...
