Key facts

Mycobacterium sp identified in Isolate by HPLC
Mycobacterium sp
High pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) is used to separate mycolic acids that are present in the cell wall of some bacteria. Different species of mycobacteria have different profiles of mycolic acids. More than 25 species can be identified using this technique.
