Mycobacteria isolated from nasal secretions of tuberculin test reactor cattle :
Nasal secretions of 103 Holstein cows from a tuberculosis-infected herd in Argentina were bacteriologically cultured for mycobacteria. Mycobacterium bovis was isolated in 8.7 per cent of the cultures. This method was useful for the detection of active tuberculosis with open lesions. Other mycobacteria, most of which grew rapidly on culture media, were isolated in 32 per cent of the cultures and were of little importance as sensitizing agents to mammalian tuberculin in experimental studies in guinea pigs
