A Multiplex Approach to Molecular Detection ofBrucella abortusand/orMycobacterium bovisInfection in Cattle

Abstract: A multiplex amplification and detection platform for the diagnosis of Mycobacterium bovis and Brucella abortusinfection simultaneously in bovine milk and nasal secretions was developed. This system (designated the bovine pathogen detection assay [BPDA]-PCR) consists of duplex amplification of species-specific targets (a region of the BCSP31K gene of B. abortus and a repeat-sequence region in the hsp65 gene of M. bovis, respectively). This is followed by a solid-phase probe capture hybridization of amplicons fo… Show more

“…More plausible is the alternative explanation that the low specificity of the serological tests observed in this study reflects the high number of false-positive reactions. The concordance between results from cultural and PCR tests reported here and the results from numerous studies (Blasco et al 1994;Dobson and Meagher 1996;Sreevatsan et al 2000) supports this contention. Notably, the rate of seropositive animals reported here, 2AE0 to 2AE5 times those positive to the cultural test (Table 4), is reasonably close (3AE0 times) to that reported studying brucellosis in the bison (Dobson and Meagher 1996).…”

“…Exposure does not necessarily imply that the animals are infected (Blasco et al 1994;Dobson and Meagher 1996;Sreevatsan et al 2000;Godfroid et al 2002). There is in fact evidence that animals can clear the infection (Harmon et al 1989;Price et al 1990;Sreevatsan et al 2000;Godfroid et al 2002). It could be argued that our data contain a large number of chronically infected animals, among which false culturenegative individuals occur frequently (Cheville et al 1998;Sreevatsan et al 2000).…”
