title: Differentiation between Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare by thin-layer chromatography of lipid fraction after incubation with [35S]methionine.
abstract: Mycobacterium avium and Mycobacterium intracellulare are differentiated from each other by thin-layer chromatography of lipid fraction extracted after incubation with [35S]methionine. The former contained a petroleum ether-soluble sulfolipid and the latter did not.
