name
descriptionM. flocculare is a difficult organism to identify by culture. Quantitative PCR methods can more successfully identify M. flocculare in swine herds because it can be performed directly on clinical samples that may contain small numbers of bacteria. [PMID: 7532205] Specimen types for this test include lung tissue and culture isolates.
