Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in Colombia (1924-2016): A review
Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is an acid-fast, gram-positive bacillus. MAP is the causal agent of paratuberculosis (PTB) or Johne’s disease, an infectious disease affecting domestic ruminants and some wild species. Its importance as a potentially zoonotic agent due to its relation to Crohn’s disease (CD) in humans is still under ...

Worldwide, tuberculosis (TB) ranks as a second leading cause of death. The End TB strategy targets eliminating TB by 2030. Achieving this goal requires an early, accurate, and affordable diagnosis applicable in low‐ and middle‐income countries; increasing the reach of point‐of‐care (POC) diagnostics is essential.

Enzyme-linked immunospot: an alternative method for the detection of interferon gamma in Johne's disease [PDF]
. To date, the sensitivity of the interferon gamma (IFN-c) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect Johne’s disease (JD) has been poor, especially in the early stages of disease.

Sequence variants associated with resilient responses in growing pigs
Abstract The current work aimed to identify genomic regions and candidate genes associated with resilience in pigs. In previous work, we proposed the body weight deviation from the expected growth curve (ΔBW) and the increase of the positive acute‐phase protein haptoglobin (ΔHP) after a vaccine challenge as resilience indicators which may be improved ...

Detection of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis in asymptomatic bovines by IS900 Polymerase Chain Reaction [PDF]
Faecal samples were collected from 58 asymptomatic bovines and after DNA extraction IS900 Polymerase Chain Reaction (IS900 PCR) was performed to detect Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP). Ten samples (17.24 %) were positive for MAP.
