“…For conventional identification, an extended panel of biochemical and cultural tests ( Table 1) was used (2,7,15,19,26,27). The hybridization test was done with chemiluminescent DNA probes (AccuProbe; Gen-Probe, San Diego, Calif.) specific for M. avium, Mycobacterium intracellulare, and M. tuberculosis complex, according to the recommendations in reference 22, but using both the 5-and the 10-min ''selection times.''…”

Mycobacterium celatum is a recently described species which, on the basis of conventional tests, may be misidentified as Mycobacterium xenopi or as belonging to the Mycobacterium avium complex. Only genomic sequencing or high-performance liquid chromatography of cell wall mycolic acids can presently allow a correct identification of this mycobacterium. Two cases of infection due to M. celatum, in AIDS patients, are described here. The quantitative susceptibility pattern of the isolates to a wide spectrum of drugs is also reported.
