Abstract
The performance of the secretory protein MPB70 of Mycobacterium bovis, bovine PPD, and lipoarabinomannan (LAM) were evaluated as antigens in ELISA for detection of tuberculosis (TB) infected cattle. Sera were f rom 120 M. bovis infected cattle and 223 cattle from a TB free herd. E LISA results were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (RO C) curves in relation to culture results. The areas under the three RO C curves were 71 +/- 49% SE (MPB70), 71 +/- 27% SE (bovine PPD), and 5 6 +/- 4% SE (LAM).
