AB  - Mycobacteria  are  aerobic,  acid-fast  bacilli  (rods)  (Figure  21–1).  They  are  neither  gram  positive  nor  gram  negative  (i.e.,  they  are  stained  poorly  by  the  dyes  used  in  Gram  stain).  They  are  virtually  the  only  bacteria  that  are  acid-fast.  (One  exception  is  Nocardia  asteroides,  the  major  cause  of  nocardiosis,  which  is  also  acid-fast.)
