Abstract:
We characterized the serovar specificity of the probe pMAV22 using ATCC isolates. Primers from this sequence amplified DNA from serovars 1-6, 8-10, and ATCC strain 19075 but did not amplify MAIS serovars 7, 11, 12, 14, 17-20. This confirmed that the M. avium probe pMAV22 is specific for M. avium, not M. intracellulare.
