Potential for rapid antibody detection to identify tuberculous cattle with non-reactive tuberculin skin test results
BACKGROUND Bovine tuberculosis (TB) control programs generally rely on the tuberculin skin test (TST) for ante-mortem detection of Mycobacterium bovis-infected cattle. RESULTS Present findings demonstrate that a rapid antibody test based on Dual-Path Platform (DPP®) technology, when applied 1-3 weeks after TST, detected 9 of 11 and 34 of 52 TST non-reactive yet M. bovis-infected cattle from t...
متن کاملFurther Studies on the Ophthalmo-tuberculin Reaction in Cattle
Our conclusions differ in a few points from those of our first work on this subject. We are able to sum up our observations in this series of experiments as follows: 1. The ophthalmo-tuberculin test is of limited value in the diagnosis of tuberculosis in cattle. In some cases the reaction is very slight (hyperaemia). In others more pronounced congestion with profuse exudates are noted. Accuracy...
متن کاملEstimation of the Relative Sensitivity of the Comparative Tuberculin Skin Test in Tuberculous Cattle Herds Subjected to Depopulation
Bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is one of the most serious economic animal health problems affecting the cattle industry in Great Britain (GB), with incidence in cattle herds increasing since the mid-1980s. The single intradermal comparative cervical tuberculin (SICCT) test is the primary screening test in the bTB surveillance and control programme in GB and Ireland. The sensitivity (ability to detec...
متن کاملTuberculin Test
در ایالات متحده حدود ۱۵ میلیون نفر آلوده به میکروب سل می باشند و هر سال ۳۰ هزار مورد جدید گزارش می شود. انتظار می رود تا سال ۲۰۰۰ این رقم به ۵۰۰۰۰ نفر در سال برسد. تست مانتو نسبت به تست چند سوزنی که قبلاً بسیار متداول بود، بمراتب دقیق تر است و بهمین دلیل به عنوان یک روش انتخابی برای غربالگری سل شناخته شده است. امروزه این تست اولین اقدام برای اثبات عفونت کلینیکی بوده و در صورتی که بطور دقیق ا...
متن کاملStudies on Tuberculin Fever
In a search for the source of the circulating endogenous pyrogen (EP) that mediates tuberculin-induced fever, tuberculin was incubated in vitro with various tissues of rabbits sensitized by intravenous infection with BCG. Evidence was obtained that tuberculin specifically stimulates cells in the blood of sensitized rabbits to generate pyrogen in vitro, whereas both lymph node and spleen cells f...
