Mycobacterium bovis is a slow-growing (16- to 20-hour generation time), aerobic bacterium and the causative agent of tuberculosis in cattle (known as bovine TB). Related to M. tuberculosis—the bacterium which causes tuberculosis in humans—M. bovis can also jump the species barrier and cause tuberculosis in humans and other mammals. Bovine TB is a chronic infectious disease which affects a broad range of mammalian hosts, including humans, cattle, deer, llamas, pigs, domestic cats, wild carnivores (foxes, coyotes) and omnivores (possums, mustelids and rodents); it rarely affects equids or sheep. The disease can be transmitted in several ways; for example, it can be spread in exhaled air, sputum, urine, faeces and pus, so the disease can be transmitted by direct contact, contact with the excreta of an infected animal, or inhalation of aerosols, depending on the species involved.
牛結核病(bovine tuberculosis)是由牛的分枝桿菌(Mycobacterium bovis)和結核分枝桿菌(Mycobacterium tuberculosis)所引起的一種人畜共忠慢性傳染病,牛結核病自它存在的那一天起,該病就一直危害著人類和動物的健康,并給整個社會造成了巨大的經濟和物質損失。該病被國際獸疫局(OIE)列為B類動物疾病,可通過接觸病牛或攝入受該菌污染的牛肉、牛奶及奶制品等從而從牛傳染到人,其傳播和流行影響著畜牧業的持續發展和人類自身的健康。傳統的牛結核分枝桿菌檢測方法主要是表型分類法,是以形態和理化特性為依據,耗用的時間比較長,一般是1～2個月。
