Tuberculosis is a severe infectious disease caused by species of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. M. bovis is responsible for pulmonary disease in bovin and sometimes to tuberculous mastitis with passage of tubercle bacilli in milk.M. bovis is responsible for extra-pulmonary infections in human and also pulmonary infections by inhalation of infected droplets through direct contact with infected animals.Staff working in microbiological diagnostic and research laboratories is likely to be exposed to Infection risk with pathogens. M. species are essentially an airborne Pathogen included in Risk Group 3 according to the international classification and It is transmitted via aerosols or less frequently by accidental inoculation. The definite diagnosis of tuberculosis relies on the isolation and identification of the Mycobacterium in clinical specimens. . It was showed that 80% of all accidents were due to human error and 20% to equipments problems. even if equipments troubles were partially solved by the adoption of appropriate safety equipments in many diagnostic and research laboratories, behavioral factors may be a source of concern. There are numerous records of laboratory-acquired tuberculosis infection through aerosols or skin puncture .
Biological Risk Assessment of Laboratory Activities through Species of theMycobacterium must be considered. The bacterial load of infected material (such as sputum specimens and cultures), and the viability of TB bacilli. Route of transmission of TB; the location of the laboratory; The epidemiology of the disease and the patient population served by the laboratory; the level of experience and the competence of the laboratory's technicians in addition to the health of the laboratory's workers. Biosafety Recommendations for the Contained Use for isolation of Mycobacterium species and the use of disinfection, inactivation of M. tuberculosis isolates and waste management as well as The Personnel should receive regular updates and appropriate additional training, under the supervision of the head of the laboratory are discussed.
Thirty mastitic milk samples were collected from she camels for the isolation and identification of bacteria causing mastitis and to determine their antibiogram against certain antibiotics. Bacteriological examination of mastitic milk samples revealed 18 single isolates (60%) and 12 mixed isolates (40%). Gentamicin was found to be the highest effective drug against the isolated bacteria than other used drugs. A total of 25 she camels (15 healthy and 10 mastitic) were divided into 5 equal groups receiving gentamicin alone and/or in combination with isoflupredone acetate. Blood and milk samples were taken from all she camels at 1 st , 7 th and 15 th days post treatment for haematological and biochemical analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
