The Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic infectious disease whose etiologic agent Mycobacterium bovis. This bacterium can survive for up to two years in pasture, hence why this is a disease of concern in Mato Grosso, where livestock farming predominates. In the case of animal disease has no treatment, and sacrifice the only alternative. "The orientation is that once identified the infected animal, the stamping is done because the disease is highly infectious and spreads quickly. "said Carlos Augusto Zanata analyst Livestock Famato-Federation of Agriculture and Livestock of the State of Mato Grosso. This is a disease that typically affects dairy herds, especially cattle stalls, and to cut herds, bred extensively, tuberculosis has minor epidemiological importance. But the most delicate point is related to public health, for transmission to humans occurs through the milk from infected cows, though, after the implementation of pasteurization, this form of transmission was minimized. Another point that requires caution is that this disease has been increasing among people who deal directly with contaminated animals or products from those, such as veterinarians, handlers, laboratory workers, among others. LEARN MORE About 90% of infections m. bovis in cattle and buffaloes occur by the respiratory route through inhalation of aerosols contaminated with the micro-organism. transmission between animals occurs directly or indirectly. Involve the direct detection and identification of the etiologic agent in biological material. Since the indirect search a host immune response to the etiologic agent, which can be humoral (production of antibodies) or cellular (as measured by lymphocytes and macrophages). The symptoms do not exhibit lesions yellowish nodular in shape, one to three centimeters in diameter or more, which can come together in purulent or caseous, present a fibrous capsule, usually presenting a caseous necrosis in the center of lesion or calcification in the most advanced. These lesions are most frequently observed in the lymph nodes, lungs and liver . It is estimated that one third of world population is infected with the bacilli - 5 to 10% will become ill or eliminate the bacillus during their lives. each sick person infects 10 to 15 people.
