Abstract
Thirty-Five samp < /strong>les of soil were collected from animal dwellings and careing centers in Sohag (20) and Assiut (15) Governorates. Atypical mycobacteria were recovered from 11 out of 35 soil samples with an incidence of 31.43% Fifteen strains were isolated from 11 positive samples and were identified as follows: Mycobacterium phlei (7), Mycobacterium fortuitum (4) Mycobacterium flavescens (2) and Mycobacterium chelonei (2). The public health significance as well as the suggestive measures to prevent contamination of soil by these organisms are discussed.
