Abstract
Thirty-seven animals aged over 2 years in
a paratuberculosis endemic herd were selected to
study the usefulness of ELISA and gamma
interferon assay in bovine paratuberculosis
diagnosis. All the animals were screened by a
comparative single intradermal test for
tuberculosis and paratuberculosis. Of the 37
animals tested by gamma interferon assay and
ELISA, 21 animals were positive by γ- IFN and
nine animals were positive by ELISA.
