Optimizing identification of Mycoplasma bovis by MALDI-TOF MS [PDF]

Research in Veterinary Science, 2019
Fast and accurate identification of Mycoplasma bovis in cattle samples is of great importance for rational treatment and control of pneumonia, arthritis and mastitis. However, which growth conditions will allow the fastest identification of M. bovis with MALDI-TOF MS remains unclear. Therefore, growth conditions and incubation time were investigated to
