      Introduction: Mycobacterium bovis and Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis, respectively the causative agents of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) and bovine paratuberculosis (PTB), share a high number of antigenic proteins. ...
    • Development of a lateral flow immunochromatography test for the rapid detection of bovine tuberculosis 

      Alonso, Maria Natalia; Griffa, Natanael; Moyano, Roberto Damián; Mon, Maria Laura; Colombatti Olivieri, Maria Alejandra; Barandiaran, Soledad; Martinez Vivot, Marcela; Fiorini, Gonzalo; Canal, Ana María; Santangelo, María De La Paz; Singh, Mahavir G.; Romano, Maria Isabel (Elsevier, 2021-04)
      Detection of specific antibodies would be a useful test strategy for bovine tuberculosis (bTB) as a complement to the single skin test. We developed a lateral flow immunochromatography (LFIC) test for rapid bTB detection ...
    • Editorial : Vaccination strategies against ruminant infectious diseases 

      Del Medico Zajac, Maria Paula; Moyano, Roberto Damian; Colombatti Olivieri, Maria Alejandra (Frontiers Media, 2023-05)
      Ruminant infectious diseases cause economic impact through losses in animal production and human health. Most of the commercially available veterinary vaccines are live attenuated or inactivated which induce different ...
    • Evaluation of a virulent strain of Mycobacterium avium subsp. Paratuberculosis used as a heat-killed vaccine

      Bovine paratuberculosis is one of the most important chronic infectious diseases in livestock. This disease is difficult to control because of its inefficient management (test and cull strategy and inadequate biosecurity). ...
    • Genomic comparison of two strains of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis with contrasting pathogenic phenotype 

      Colombatti Olivieri, Maria Alejandra; Fresia, Pablo; Graña, Martín; Cuerda, Maria Ximena; Nagel, Ariel Gaston; Alvarado Pinedo, Maria Fiorella; Romano, Maria Isabel; Caimi, Karina Cynthia; Berná, Luisa; Santangelo, María De La Paz (Elsevier, 2023-01)
      In a previous study, we evaluated the degree of virulence of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (Map) strains isolated from cattle in Argentina in a murine model. This assay allowed us to differentiate between ...
    • Pathogenesis of domestic pigs submitted to mycobacterial sensitizations previous to experimental infection with Mycobacterium bovis
