title: Enzyme electrophoresis in taxonomy of mycobacteria.
abstract: Taxonomical analyses of mycobacteria were performed by using multilocus enzyme electrophoresis (MEE). The studies showed that the mycobacteria tested advantageously could be differentiated on species level. The MEE method could also be used for subspecies differentiation, but the method seemed less well suited than some other methods for this purpose. The results are discussed in relation to MEE analyses of other microorganisms.
