Etymology: conceptionense, pertaining to Hôpital de la Conception, the hospital where the first strain was isolated. ==Description== Microscopy *Acid-fast and gram-positive bacilli. Colony characteristics *Colonies are non pigmented. Physiology *Colonies appear on 5% sheep blood agar, Middlebrook 7H10 agar, and egg-based Lowenstein-Jensen slants in 2 to 5 days at temperatures between 25 and 37°C, optimally at 30°C. No growth occurs at 42°C. *The type strain is susceptible in vitro to imipenem, minocycline, doxycycline, clarithromycin, erythromycin, azithromycin, amikacin, ciprofloxacin, ofloxacin, sparfloxacin, and amoxicillinclavulanate and resistant to penicillin, amoxicillin, and vancomycin. Differential characteristics *M. conceptionense shares 99.7% 16S rRNA (4-bp difference) and 97.0% rpoB gene sequence similarity with Mycobacterium porcinum, the nearest species. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mycobacterium conceptionense」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
