Intravenous johnin and tuberculin tests in cattle vaccinated with Mycobacterium paratuberculosis cells and subsequently inoculated with Mycobacterium bovis. 1975

K E Kopecky, and A B Larsen

Calves at 30 days of age were vaccinated with a killed whole-cell Mycobacterium paratuberculosis vaccine. Four months later, these calves were inoculated with Mycobacterium bovis. The intravenous tuberculin and johnin tests were applied both before and after inoculation. The results of the hematologic investigation had extremes at both high and low values and were too unsuitable for statistical analysis. The intravenous tuberculin test is considered unsuitable for diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis in cattle vaccinated against paratuberculosis.
