4、This practice involves culture of organisms classified asLevel 2 pathogens,and should be undertaken by a trainedmicrobiologist in an appropriately equipped facility.The mi-crobiologist should also be capable of distinguishing thediverse colonies of Mycobacteria from other microorganismcolonies on a
