Mycobacterium Tuberculosis
A photomicrograph of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in a sputum smear, using Ziehl-Neelsen acid-fast stain technique, 1971. Infection is passed from one person to another when an infected person coughs or sneezes, thereby, releasing bacteria-containing microdroplets into the air to be inhaled by an uninfected recipient, who then becomes infected.
