Abstract:
Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic debilitating disease of cattle caused by organisms of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC). Hence, the present study was carried out to isolate the organisms of MTBC from milk samples. However, out of 17 milk samples inoculated, only one isolate was obtained, which was later identified as non tuberculus mycobacterium (NTM) using IS6110 PCR.
