Occurrence of Mycobacterium bovis and non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in raw and pasteurized milk in the northwestern region of Paraná, Brazil

Abstract: Milk is widely consumed in Brazil and can be the vehicle of agent transmission. In this study, was evaluated the occurrence of Mycobacterium bovis and non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) in raw and pasteurized milk consumed in the northwestern region of Paraná, Brazil. Fifty-two milk samples (20 pasteurized and 32 raw) from dairy farms near the municipality of Maringa, Parana State, Brazil were collected. Milk samples were decontaminated using 5% oxalic acid method and cultured on Lowenstein-Jensen and Stonebri… Show more

“…Literature showed that milk, faeces, and nasal discharges etc. are the routes of excretion of the M. bovis pathogen (Sgarioni et al, 2014). In present study, 2.5% milk samples showed growth on Lowenstein Jensen medium.…”

“…Literature shows that there are many roots of excretion of the M. bovis pathogen such as milk, blood, nasal secre-tions, lymph glands, rectal pinch and feces (Srivastava et al, 2006;Sgarioni et al, 2014;Jalil et al, 2003). Therefore, in present study, milk and nasal secretion were collected to isolate M. bovis.…”

“…In this study, some of the species we identified have already been detected in cattle in other studies. In Brazil, nine different species of environmental mycobacteria were isolated ( M. nonchro-mogenicum, M. peregrinum, M. smegmatis, M. neoaurum, M. fortuitum, M. chelonae, M. flavescens, M. kansasii and M. scrofulaceum ) in milk from cattle [ 15 ]. Most of the identified Mycobacterium species in this study were also of public health importance as they can potentially cause diseases in humans especially those with AIDS and are immunocompromised.…”
