Molecular Identification of Strains within the Mycobacterium abscessus Complex and Determination of Resistance to Macrolides and Aminoglycosides

One of the most relevant and pathogenic groups among the rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM) is Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MABC) that includes three subspecies: M. abscessus subsp. abscessus, M. abscessus subsp. bolletii, and M. abscessus subsp. massiliense. The aim of this study was the analys...
