Pathogenic mycobacteria in water : a guide to public health consequences, monitoring and management /

The importance of the Pathogenic Environmental Mycobacteria (PEM), and especially the Mycobacterium avium Complex (MAC), was recognised with the discovery of disseminated infection in immunocompromised people, particularly people with HIV and AIDS. Yet there are many other forms of disease, both min...
