Identification of contaminating bacteria when attempting to isolate Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) from bovine faecal and tissue samples using the BACTEC MGIT 960 system

Identification of contaminating bacteria when attempting to isolate Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) from bovine faecal and tissue samples using the BACTEC MGIT 960 system

Diagnosis of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis infection by liquid culture is sensitive, faster than conventional solid culture and automated. However, a disadvantage of these culture systems is the potential for high frequency of culture contamination. Contaminant bacteria were identified...
