Bovine tuberculosis costs New Zealand more than $80 million per year, mostly because extensive areas of the country are occupied by brushtail possums infected with Mycobacterium bovis. AgResearch has a major programme to produce new live tuberculosis

The unusual and complex cell wall of pathogenic mycobacteria plays a major role in pathogenesis, with specific complex lipids acting as defensive, offensive, or adaptive effectors of virulence. The phthiocerol and phthiodiolone dimycocerosate esters

Summary The variable efficacy of BCG in humans has been extensively documented but its cause is still not well understood. One possible reason for this variation is the effect of presensitization with environmental mycobacteria. To investigate in gui

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex includes Mycobacterium bovis, which causes tuberculosis in most mammals, including humans. In previous work, it was shown that M. bovis ATCC 35721 has a mutation in its principal sigma factor gene, sigA, causing

Bacille Calmette-Guerin (BCG) is the world's most widely used vaccine, but there are concerns that it provides little protection against pulmonary tuberculosis of humans in countries that have a high prevalence of environmental mycobacteria. Experime

Seventeen serotype 7 Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae strains isolated in New Zealand and A. pleuropneumoniae serotypes 1-12 reference strains were typed by restriction endonuclease analysis of chromosomal DNA and plasmid profiling. All serotype 7 str

Setting: Molecular genetic techniques have been used to elucidate virulence determinants and to produce vaccines for many bacterial pathogens but reliable techniques for slow-growing mycobacteria have not been available. Objective: Oxidative defence

Isolates of Vibrio ordalii were recovered from salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha and Oncorhynchus nerka) cultured in New Zealand. The fish suffered from clinical vibriosis, from seven outbreaks in five geographically distinct areas. Affected fish show

Tuberculous lesions were identified over a 2-year period in 36 clinically normal red deer from a single herd. The lesions were only present in the retropharyngeal lymph nodes and lymph nodes draining the intestinal tract, indicating infection by the

Setting: Molecular techniques are now available to develop new live tuberculosis vaccines by producing avirulent strains of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex with known genes deleted. Objectives: Determine if removal of esat-6 from new live tube
