Detection of mycobacteria in the bloodstream of patients with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome in a University Hospital in Brazil

This study was done to determine the occurrence of mycobacteria in the bloodstreams of patients with fever and advanced AIDS in a Brazilian hospital. We also verified the capability of an automated method for recovering these bacteria. During a period of 19 months, 254 patients with AIDS were evalua...
