| Descrizione: | In Costa Rica the diagnosis of Johne's disease has been based on clinical, histopathological and bacteriological evidence and cutaneous testing; however, the prevalence of the disease at the national level is unknown. Since serum ELISA is a well accepted method of testing for antibody response to Mparatuberculosis (Collins and others 1991, Sockett and others 1992), a bovine serum bank collected in 1990 and a lipoarabinomannan antigen ELISA (LAM-ELISA) which included a preabsorption step with Mycobacteriumphlei (Sudgen and others 1987, 1989) was used. |
