general characteristics
gram positive, non motile, non sporing, non capsulate aerobic rods
more than 85 species have been identified
mostly found in soil and fresh water
in liquid culture they often appear to grow as filaments because of the mycolic acid in the cell wall
cell envelope
confers resistance to environmental stresses such as
disinfectants
host defences
antibiotics
