Samples submitted for TB Diagnostic tests
• Lymph node lesions detected at abattoir post mortem examination of non-reactor cattle: - approx. 5,000 per year
• Selected ‘singleton reactor’ cattle: - approx. 600 per year
• Reactors from herds where DVO is undertaking epidemiological investigation: - approx. 800 per year

Diagnostic methods
• Macroscopic examination
• Histopathology» Rapid diagnosis» Good correlation with culture (94%)» 85% of lesions diagnosed by histopathology
• Culture» Solid media (Stonebrinks + LJ)» Liquid media (MGIT 960)» Blood agar

MGIT 960 Liquid Culture System
• Liquid medium
• Growth of mycobacteria leads to depletion of oxygen
• Oxygen sensitive fluorescent chemical indicator in the culture tube
• System for simultaneous incubation and monitoring of culture tubes

Isolate identification proceduresGrowth characteristics
• Growth rate and effect of temperature on growth
• Colony colour and morphology
• Cording

•RFLP analysis
•2000 isolates typed
•Good differentiation of strains
•Spoligotyping
•PCR based method
50% of isolates SB140
•VNTR
•Results can be expressed in a
