Mycobacterium, la Mycobactérie, est un genre de bactéries de la famille des Mycobacteriaceae. Ce sont des bacilles aérobies assez longs et fins, asporulés et acapsulés. Leur paroi présente une structure particulière, riche en cires (acides mycoliques) qui leur permet de retenir les colorants malgré l'action combinée d'acide dilué et d'alcool. Cette paroi leur confère une grande résistance aux antiseptiques, à certains antibiotiques, aux macrophages. Ils sont dits « bacilles acido-alcoolo-résistants » ou BAAR.
