Mycobacterium bovis in Panama, 2013 [PDF]
Panama remains free of zoonotic tuberculosis caused by Mycobacterium bovis. However, DNA fingerprinting of 7 M. bovis isolates from a 2013 bovine tuberculosis outbreak indicated minimal homology with strains previously circulating in Panama. M.

Social group size affects Mycobacterium bovis infection in European badgers (Meles meles) [PDF]
1. In most social animals, the prevalence of directly transmitted pathogens increases in larger groups and at higher population densities. Such patterns are predicted by models of Mycobacterium bovis infection in European badgers (Meles meles). 2.

The prevalence, distribution and severity of detectable pathological lesions in badgers naturally infected with Mycobacterium bovis [PDF]
The Randomized Badger Culling Trial (RBCT) began in 1998 to determine the impact of badger culling in controlling bovine tuberculosis in cattle. A total of 1166 badgers (14% of total)proactively culled during the RBCT were found to be tuberculous ...

Mycobacterium bovistenosynovitis [PDF]
Infectious tenosynovitis is a rare condition usually presenting with symptoms of joint pain, swelling and deformity. A large number of infectious organisms are known to cause tenosynovitis and prompt and accurate diagnosis is essential to ensure appropriate treatment is delivered before serious complications and functional impairment occurs.

Flow cytometric detection of gamma interferon can effectively discriminate Mycobacterium bovis BCG-vaccinated cattle from M. bovis-infected cattle [PDF]
Mycobacterium bovis is the causative agent of bovine tuberculosis, a disease that is increasing in incidence in United Kingdom cattle herds. In addition to increasing economic losses, the rise in bovine tuberculosis poses a human health risk. There is an

Whole genome sequencing reveals local transmission patterns of mycobacterium bovis in sympatric cattle and badger populations [PDF]
Whole genome sequencing (WGS) technology holds great promise as a tool for the forensic epidemiology of bacterial pathogens. It is likely to be particularly useful for studying the transmission dynamics of an observed epidemic involving a largely ...

MYCOBACTERIUM BOVIS IN WILDLIFE IN FRANCE [PDF]
In early 2001, tuberculosis-like lesions were detected in three hunter-killed red deer (Cervus elaphus) in the Brotonne Forest (Normandy, France), and Mycobacterium bovis was isolated. In subsequent hunting seasons, two surveys were conducted in the area.

Duration of Immunity against Mycobacterium bovis following Neonatal Vaccination with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin Danish: Significant Protection against Infection at 12, but Not 24, Months [PDF]
Vaccination of neonatal calves with Mycobacterium bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) induces a significant degree of protection against bovine tuberculosis, caused by infection with virulent M. bovis.
