Specificity Evaluation of a Polyprotein‐Based ELISA Designed for the Detection of Paratuberculosis in Multiple Species

Veterinary Medicine International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Paratuberculosis (PTB) is a disease affecting ruminant animals. The etiological agent, Mycobacterium avium subspecies PTB (Map), is a short, Gram‐positive, acid‐fast bacillus. Due to the nature of PTB, diagnosis often occurs at advanced stages of the disease, following the onset of clinical symptoms and prior dissemination of the agent. The specificity

Purification of native HBHA from Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis [PDF]

BMC Research Notes, 2013
Abstract Background Paratuberculosis remains today a major global problem in animal health, especially for dairy cattle. However, the diagnosis of its etiologic agent, Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map), still lacks sensitivity because of the lack of available antigens.

Seroprevalence study of paratuberculosis: Johne's disease, a neglected infection in dairy herds in Apulia (southern Italy)

Veterinary Record Open, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2025.
Abstract Introduction Paratuberculosis (PTB) is a disease caused by Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP). In Italy, voluntary PTB control plans have been implemented; nonetheless, so far, data on the prevalence of PTB in dairy herds are fragmented and incomplete, especially in the south of the country.

Pixelated pathologies: Camera trapping as a tool for monitoring wildlife health

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 62, Issue 11, Page 2894-2913, November 2025.
Given the increasing emergence of diseases, some with conservation and public health implications, improving and expanding wildlife health surveillance strategies is imperative. Camera trapping is particularly relevant for detecting new outbreaks, monitoring high‐risk zones and evaluating risk mitigation measures. Abstract Camera trapping has become an

Animal Health Professionals’ Knowledge, Risk Perception and Preventive Practices Towards Zoonotic Infections in Cameroon

Public Health Challenges, Volume 4, Issue 3, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction Animal health professionals act as the first line of defence in zoonosis transmission. By handling animals on a daily basis, they are at risk of contracting zoonotic diseases. However, the lack of data on animal health professional risk perception on zoonotic disease and preventive practices may hamper decision making and policies

Conserved mycobacterial sRNA B11 regulates lipooligosaccharide synthesis at posttranscriptional level in Mycobacterium marinum

mLife, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 447-460, August 2025.
Abstract Extractable glycolipids of mycobacteria, such as lipooligosaccharides (LOSs), play crucial roles in responding to environmental stress and modulating the host immune response. Although the biosynthesis of LOS is likely regulated at multiple levels to ensure proper composition of the cell wall, the key regulators remain unknown.

Heterogeneity among Mycobacterium avium complex species isolated from pulmonary infection in Taiwan

Microbiology Spectrum
Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) is an emerging pathogen causing nontuberculous pulmonary infections globally. However, clinical treatment guidelines regard MAC as a single entity, recommending a universal anti-mycobacterial combination therapy.
