Tóm tắt

Rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM) are omnipresent nontuberculous mycobacteria that cause opportunistic infections in animals and humans. Without knowledge of the epidemiology and antimicrobial susceptibility of RGM in companion animals in Taiwan, diagnostic and therapeutic regimens are limited. To address this, we collected 44 RGM isolates from 25 dogs and 19 cats from 2018 to 2021 and investigated their antimicrobial susceptibility and macrolide-resistance genes. The most prevalent RGM were
