BookPublisher: The University of Zambia: Lusaka 2016Description: xii,58p.: ill.Subject(s): Tuberculosis, pulmonary | TuberculosisDissertation note: A dissertation submitted to the University of Zambia in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the Master of Science degree in Medical Microbiology. Summary: Non-tuberculosis mycobacteria(NTM) are increasingly recognized as human pathogens especially with the emergence of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome(AIDS).
