aOf 140 cultures, 134 results were produced, but only 130 were available for results by center; 2 were M. gordonae, amplification failed for 4 cultures, and center could not be definitively identified for 4. 
bOf 140 cultures, amplification products that could be evaluated were obtained from 128 cultures.
