Mycobacterium tuberculosis is the etiologic agent of tuberculosis TB in humans. Transmission of TB occurs primarily by the aerosol route but can also occur through the gastrointestinal tract. Coughing by people with active TB produces droplet nuclei containing infectious organisms which can remain suspended in the air for several hours. Infection occurs if inhalation of these droplets results in the organism reaching the alveoli of the lungs. Since administration of a single drug often leads to the development of a bacterial population resistant to that drug effective regimens for the treatment of TB contain multiple drugs to which the organisms are susceptible.
