Rifampin in picogram quantities inhibited the ability of Mycobacterium bovis 44 BCG P3 to release 14CO2 from the oxidation of [14C]palmitic acid. By using these mycobacteria in a bioassay, samples of serum and posterior tibial nerve were assayed for

SUMMARY A competitive antibody-binding assay (CABA) was developed to detect antibodies in infected armadillos and leprosy patients which compete with an M. leprae-specific125I monoclonal antibody IIIE9 for the species-specific M. leprae-IIIE9 epitope

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using the phenolic glycolipid-1 (PGL-1) antigen of Mycobacterium leprae and cross-reactive antisera specific for human IgM was developed to detect IgM antibodies to M. leprae in the nine-banded armadillo (
