1. Tuberculosis (TB): Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, is one of the most significant pathogens within the family. TB is a highly infectious disease that primarily affects the lungs but can also affect other parts of the body, such as the brain, spine, and kidneys. It is transmitted through the air when an infected person coughs or sneezes.

2. Non-Tuberculous Mycobacterial (NTM) Infections: Some mycobacteria other than Mycobacterium tuberculosis, known as non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), can also cause infections in humans. These infections typically affect the lungs, skin, lymph nodes, and soft tissues. NTM infections are often associated with underlying lung diseases, such as bronchiectasis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and can be challenging to treat due to antibiotic resistance.

3. Leprosy: Mycobacterium leprae is the bacterium responsible for causing leprosy, also known as Hansen's disease. Leprosy primarily affects the skin, peripheral nerves, and mucous membranes. It is transmitted through respiratory droplets and close contact with an infected person but has a long incubation period, making it a relatively rare disease.

4. Other infections: Mycobacteriaceae members can also cause other infections, such as Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) infections, which affect people with weakened immune systems, including those with HIV/AIDS.

5. Environmental reservoirs: Some mycobacteria exist naturally in the environment, such as in soil and water. Exposure to environmental mycobacteria is generally not harmful to healthy individuals but can cause infections in people with compromised immune systems or underlying respiratory conditions.

6. Zoonotic infections: Certain mycobacteria can infect both humans and animals, leading to zoonotic infections. For example, Mycobacterium bovis can cause tuberculosis in cattle and can be transmitted to humans through contaminated dairy products or direct contact with infected animals.

Lab Reporting

Different labs use different software to read the sample. See this post for more details.
One lab may say you have none, another may say you have a lot! - This may be solely due to the software they are using to estimate.
We deem lab specific values using values from the KM method for each specific lab to be the most reliable.

Desired Levels Suggestions for Mycobacteriaceae

• Frequency - how often do samples show this bacteria
• UD - An alternative statistical algorithm (which factors in the frequency)
• Kaltoft-Moldrup Heuristic Using uploaded data
• Lab Low and High are calculated using the formula that most labs use: Mean - 2 Standard Deviation to Mean + 2 Standard Deviation

These are values that are computed from lab specific samples (Patent Pending)
