Evaluación de dos antígenos experimentales (DST-F y P22) para el diagnóstico inmunológico de la tuberculosis en ganado bovino

Article

La tuberculosis (TB) bovina es una micobacteriosis zoonósica producida por miembros del Complejo Mycobacterium tuberculosis (CMTB), especialmente M. bovis y M. caprae (Valcheva et al., 2022).
La presencia de esta enfermedad en la cabaña ganadera comporta una serie de repercusiones sanitarias y económicas por lo que diversos países, entre ellos España, han instaurado programas de erradicación de la TB en ganado bovino (MAPA, 2025).
Estos programas se basan eminentemente en una estrategia …

What the environment hides: emerging use of non-invasive sampling in animal health

Article

Surveillance based on the detection and monitoring of veterinary pathogens is a fundamental pillar of health prevention, particularly relevant in the case of emerging agents. This has gained special interest in recent decades, driven by the "One Health" approach, which proposes monitoring animal health, protecting public health, and ensuring the health of ecosystems in a holistic manner. Furthermore, the emergence of new diseases, many of them zoonotic, raises the need to develop alternative str…

Improving the diagnosis of tuberculosis in domestic ruminants through the use of new antigens and test platforms. The imdiTBap project

Article

The impact of zoonotic tuberculosis (TB) has been known for a long time, leading to the implementation of milk pasteurization as a key preventive measure. Livestock TB control programs were originally designed to reduce the risk posed by zoonotic transmission to humans. Diagnosis of TB in livestock is based primarily on cell-mediated immunity (CMI) diagnostic tests (intradermal test/IT and interferon-gamma release assay/IGRA) using PPDs (purified protein derivatives from Mycobacterium bovis and …

imdiTBap. Improving the diagnosis of tuberculosis in domestic ruminants through the use of new antigens and test platforms

Article

The impact of zoonotic tuberculosis (TB) has been known for a long time and has
resulted in the implementation of milk pasteurization as the main preventive
measure. Livestock TB control programs were originally designed to reduce the risk
posed by zoonotic transmission to humans. Diagnosis of TB in livestock is based
primarily on cell-mediated immunity (CMI) diagnostic tests (intradermal test/IT and
interferon-gamma release assay/IGRA) using PPDs (purified protein derivatives from
Mycobac…
