Abstract
To determine whether Mycoplasma fermentans, Mycoplasma genitalium and
Mycoplasma penetrans were present in the genitourinary tract of HIV in
fected patients in Nancy, France, we have used culture and polymerase
chain reactions on urine from 54 HIV-infected patients. Both technique
s failed to reveal these bacteria. This renders their presence very un
likely in our population.
