Tuberculosis in goats is usually diagnosed clinically, at postmortem, or by a positive skin test. However, none of these approaches detects all infected animals. Serology offers an additional tool to identify infected animals missed by current tests. We describe the use of the Enferplex Caprine TB serology test to aid the management of a large dairy goat herd undergoing a tuberculosis breakdown. Initial skin and serology testing showed that IgG antibodies were present in both serum and milk from 100% of skin test-positive animals and in serum and milk from 77.8 and 95.4% of skin test-negative animals, respectively. A good correlation was observed between serum and milk antibody levels. The herd had been vaccinated against Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, but no direct serological crossreactions were found. Subsequent skin testing revealed 13.7% positive animals, 64.9% of which were antibody positive, while 42.1% of skin test-negative animals were seropositive. Antibody responses remained high 1 month later (57.1% positive), and the herd was slaughtered. Postmortem analysis of 20 skin test-negative goats revealed visible lesions in 6 animals, all of which had antibodies to six Mycobacterium bovis antigens. The results provide indirect evidence that serology testing with serum or milk could be a useful tool in the diagnosis and management of tuberculosis in goats.KEYWORDS tuberculosis, antibodies, goats T uberculosis (TB) due to infection by Mycobacterium bovis is a major problem in cattle in the United Kingdom, causing huge financial losses, as well as being a significant zoonosis risk. The presence of significant levels of TB in wildlife vectors such as the badger has led to trial culling or vaccination of these animals in high-risk areas such as southwestern England and Wales, respectively. Spillover hosts such as sheep, goats, deer, and alpacas also present a risk of spreading TB (1). Currently, control programs involving cattle are focused on detecting cell-mediated immunity (CMI) through the use of tuberculin skin testing and gamma interferon (IFN-␥) tests. In goats, the single intradermal comparative tuberculin test (SICTT) and the single intradermal test (SIT) are used to detect infection (2-5). Published estimates of SICTT sensitivity range from 42.7 to 83.7%, while those of SIT range from 44.6 to 93.8% (2, 3, 5). However, a recent study adopting bacteriology as the gold standard showed the sensitivity of the SIT by the severe interpretation to be as low as 43.9% and to decrease to 38.8% by the standard interpretation, while the sensitivity of the SICTT ranged between 21.3 and 7%, depending of the interpretation criterion used (6).Recent studies also showed that when goats are coinfected with Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, the sensitivity and specificity of the TB skin tests appear to be adversely affected, with a substantial proportion of M. bovis-infected animals going undetected (2-4, 7-11). Since skin and serology tests measure different arms of
