Mycobacteria species identification and susceptibility testing, especially for patients with multiply resistant pathogens, is beyond the routine testing available in most hospital laboratories. The Johns Hopkins Hospital Mycobacteriology Laboratory offers the following testing: ? Culture/smear ? Speciation ? Mycobacterial blood culture ? Routine susceptibility testing for M. tuberculosis ? Susceptibility testing for select nonspecific mycobacteria upon request ? PCR for M. tuberculosis from smear positive respiratory (only) specimens ? Mycology ? Most clinical laboratories can only identify mon fungi, but the Hospital39。s diverse patient base gives the Microbiology Laboratory experience testing for speciation of unusual anisms and for performing yeast in vitro susceptibility testing. ?
