      Programs for the eradication of bovine tuberculosis (bTB) focus on the tuberculin skin test (TST) and slaughter of reactor cattle. However, the disease remains an animal health concern in several countries and improving ...
    • 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 ...
