Cord formation in Mycobacterium abscessus
Journal of Clinical Microbiology and Biochemical Technology
Case Report
The microscopic cord formation is a characteristic property of the species of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC). This feature is used as screening method of MTC and detection of drug resistant tuberculosis in law resource settings. The presence of true cording in M. abscessus poses a challenge for identification of MTC based on the cord formation.
