  • Title: Isolation of Mycobacterium paratuberculosis from the uterine flush fluids of cows with clinical paratuberculosis.
    Author: Rohde RF, Shulaw WP.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1990 Dec 01; 197(11):1482-3. PubMed ID: 2125588.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacterium paratuberculosis was isolated from the uterine flush fluids obtained from 3 to 4 cows with clinical paratuberculosis. Four cows with clinical paratuberculosis were subjected to uterine lavage, using an established embryo recovery technique, and the recovered fluids were cultured for M paratuberculosis. Mycobacterium paratuberculosis has previously been demonstrated to adhere to bovine ova. Embryos within the uterus of a superovulated cow infected with M paratuberculosis could be exposed to the organism.
