Abstract
The cytokine interferon gamma-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) is a sensitive biomarker of Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) infection in African buffaloes (Syncerus caffer). However, elevated levels of IP-10 in QuantiFERON®-TB Gold (QFT) unstimulated whole blood compromises the utility of this biomarker. In this study, IP-10 and interferon gamma (IFN-γ) concentrations in whole blood samples from M. bovis culture-confirmed buffaloes with varying...
