这项研究报告了一个潜在的作用，鱼可能在传播溃疡分枝杆菌病（布鲁里溃疡）。鱼对M呈阳性。溃疡菌DNA似乎都以昆虫或浮游生物为食，据信它们聚集在一起。从这种常见的食物来源。这些观测结果为我们先前关于M来源的假设提供了额外的数据。溃疡和传播方式。
This study reports a potential role that fish may play in the transmission of Mycobacterium ulcerans disease (Buruli ulcer). Fish found positive for M. ulcerans DNA all appear to feed on insects or plankton and are believed to concentrate M. ulcerans from this usual food source. These observations provide additional data supporting our previous hypothesis on sources of M. ulcerans and modes of transmission.
