Mycobacterium ulcerans challenge strain selection for a Buruli ulcer controlled human infection model

Stephen Muhi, Andrew H. Buultjens, Jessica L. Porter…·Timothy P. Stinear

This paper identifies M. ulcerans JKD8049 as a suitable human challenge strain for Buruli ulcer research due to its stability, antibiotic susceptibility, and ability to produce mycolactone.

Mycobacterium ulcerans low infectious dose and atypical mechanical transmission support insect bites and puncturing injuries in the spread of Buruli ulcer.

John R. Wallace, Kirstie M. Mangas, Jessica L. Porter…·Timothy P. Stinear

The paper demonstrates that a low dose of Mycobacterium ulcerans can cause Buruli ulcer through skin punctures from mosquito bites or needles in mice.
