【 摘 要 】

Diagnosis of chronic bacterial diseases like paratuberculosis is a major challenge in dairy herds. ELISA forthe detection of Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis(MAP) specific antibodies and direct fecal PCRfor detection of MAP are regularly used for diagnosis of subclinical infections and are recommended fordemonstration of the population or individual animal freedom from MAP infection. For confirmation of clinicalcases culture, histopathology and PCR are recommended. For estimation of prevalence/ surveillance, ELISA isrecommended. The relative merits and shortcomings of the available methods for paratuberculosis diagnosis arereviewed in the context of purpose of testing.
