Identification of sulpholipid I by thin-layer chromatography in the rapid identification of Mycobacterium
Research in Microbiology
|February 1, 1992
Abstract:
A simple, rapid and reliable thin-layer chromatography method for the detection of the 2,3,6,6'-tetraacyl trehalose-2'-sulphate (sulpholipid I) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis was described. The method was found to be satisfactory as an aid in the rapid identification of M. tuberculosis in clinical laboratories.
