Etymology: Latin; intermedium, meaning between, rapidly and slowly growing mycobacteria.
Description
Gram-positive, and nonmotile acid-fast coccobacilli (2.0 µm x 2.6 µm).
Colony characteristics
- Eugonic, smooth and photochromogenic colonies (3–5mm in diameter) on Löwenstein-Jensen medium.
Physiology
- Growth on Löwenstein-Jensen medium at 22 °C, 31 °C, 37 °C and 41 °C, (optimal temperature between 31 °C and 37 °C), within 2–3 weeks.
- Susceptible to ethambutol and rifampin.
- Resistant to isoniazid and streptomycin.
Differential characteristics
- Phylogenetic position between rapidly and slowly growing mycobacteria.
- M. asiaticum is phenotypically very similar, but can be distinguished by its growth at 22 °C, and by its dysgonic growth.
Pathogenesis
- Pulmonary disease
- Biosafety level 2
Type strain
- Repeatedly isolated from sputum from a patient with pulmonary disease.
Strain 1669/91 = ATCC 51848 = CCUG 37583 = CIP 104542 = DSM 44049 = JCM 13572
gollark: The incident report system does actually work, by the way. All incidents are logged in SPUDNET. The only ones I know of are the test ones I triggered to test the system and various incident triggers. Incidents are reported when:- one known sandbox escape is detected- banned programs (Webicity) are executed- potatOS is uninstalled- invalid disk signing key
gollark: You can't make a program to fully autonomously uninstall potatOS from within it - ignoring sandbox escapes - because while sandboxed processes can use queueEvent to fake keypresses they cannot read the output of the uninstaller. The best they can do is, I don't know, guess what the random seed was when it was generating two primes, figure out what the primes were, and queue the key/char events accordingly.
gollark: <@184468521042968577> `is_valid_lua` isn't deliberately bad, but it's also IIRC not actually used anywhere.Also, that person was bundling potatOS with some other project but wanted people to be able to remove it even more easily if they don't like it. This feature does actually work but must be enabled before installation. Weirdly enough factorizing small semiprimes is beyond many users.
gollark: You could say that.
