Mycobacteroides franklinii (formerly Mycobacterium franklinii [2]) is a species of bacteria from the phylum Actinomycetota belonging to the genus Mycobacteroides. [1] Most of the original strains were isolated from clinical specimens in Pennsylvania, but some have been found in conduit water in the Netherlands. [5] In general, human M. franklinii infections present with symptoms similar to an infection with Mycobacteroides abscessus, [4] [6] but it can also be associated with tattoo infections.[ citation needed] M. franklinii is also associated with outbreaks of mycobacteriosis in farmed fish. [6] [7] M. fanklinii is susceptible to cefoxitin [8] and bedaquiline. [9]
