How can you use “mycobacterial” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Note the mycobacterial morphology remained constant when comparing intracellular with extracellular bacilli (compare Fig 2Bwith Fig 2C).

  • These data indicate that macrophages can kill and degrade a percentage of mycobacterial cells in a given infection.

  • However, an increased percentage of degraded mycobacterial forms was observed over time.

  • There were no statistically significant differences in age, sex, clinical stage, CD4 cell count, viral load, use of antiretrovirals drugs or time of diagnosis since HIV infection between patients with or without mycobacterial infection (Table 7).

  • Mycobacteria enter macrophages primarily by conventional receptor-mediated phagocytic pathways [ 3 ] . Following phagocytosis, phagosomes containing viable tubercle bacilli fail to acidify, apparently because of failure to insert a proton-ATPase pump into the phagosomal membrane [ 4 5 6 ] . This leads to altered vacuolar maturation such that phagosome-lysosome fusion is blocked and the mycobacteria-containing vacuoles end up with an internal pH of about 6 and markers of phagosomes and early and late endosomes [ 7 8 9 10 11 ] . The mycobacterial genes responsible for these processes are largely unknown.
