“…It is suspected that stress of cattle through climatic changes, overcrowding or translocation may make the animals more susceptible to infection and subsequently trigger an outbreak (Bayoumi, Farver, Bushnell, & Oliveria, ; Boothby, Jasper, Zinkl, Thomas, & Dellinger, ; Knudtson, Reed, & Daniels, ). Furthermore, there is an increased risk of mastitis linked to large herd size (Fox & Gay, ; Fox, Hancock, Mickelson, & Britten, ; Nicholas et al., ; Pfützner & Sachse, ).…”

There is a worldwide problem of disease caused by Mycoplasma (M.) bovis in cattle; it has a significant detrimental economic and animal welfare impact on cattle rearing. Infection can manifest as a plethora of clinical signs including mastitis, pneumonia, arthritis, keratoconjunctivitis, otitis media and genital disorders that may result in infertility and abortion. Current diagnosis and control information are reviewed and analysed to identify gaps in knowledge of the causative organism in respect of the disease pathology, diagnosis and control methods. The main considerations are as follows: no vaccines are commercially available; antimicrobial resistance is increasing; diagnostic and antimicrobial sensitivity testing needs to be improved; and a pen-side test would facilitate more rapid diagnosis and implementation of treatment with antimicrobials. More data on host susceptibility, stress factors, immune response and infectious dose levels are required. The impact of asymptomatic carriers, M. bovis survival in the environment and the role of wildlife in transmitting the disease also needs investigation. To facilitate development of vaccines, further analysis of more M. bovis genomes, its pathogenic mechanisms, including variable surface proteins, is required, along with reproducible disease models.

Consensus Statements of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM) provide the veterinary community with up-to-date information on the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and treatment of clinically important animal diseases. The ACVIM Board of Regents oversees selection of relevant topics, identification of panel members with the expertise to draft the statements, and other aspects of assuring the integrity of the process. The statements are derived from evidence-based medicine whenever possible and the panel offers interpretive comments when such evidence is inadequate or contradictory. A draft is prepared by the panel, followed by solicitation of input by the ACVIM membership which may be incorporated into the statement. It is then submitted to the Journal of Veterinary Internal Medicine, where it is edited prior to publication. The authors are solely responsible for the content of the statements. Mycoplasma bovis is a pathogen causing respiratory disease, otitis media, arthritis, mastitis, and a variety of other diseases in cattle worldwide. It is increasingly recognized by the veterinary and livestock communities as having an important impact on the health, welfare, and productivity of dairy and beef cattle. M. bovis diseases can be difficult to diagnose and control because of inconsistent disease expression and response to treatments and vaccines, and large gaps in our understanding of the epidemiology and pathophysiology of these diseases. There are limited data on which to base evidence-based decisions for treatment and control, and the literature contains differing clinical biases and opinions. This document is intended for veterinarians dealing with cattle and is focused on the cattle production systems of North America. The goal of the consensus statement panel was to encourage an evidence-based approach to M. bovis problems. The scientific literature was critically reviewed, including peer-reviewed journal articles and reviews obtained by database searches using the terms ''Mycoplasma bovis'' or ''mycoplasma 1 cattle.'' Where other data were lacking, conference proceedings were reviewed as a source of expert opinion. Mycoplasma bovis Infections in Cattle

“…Cryostat sections were similarly examined by IFA test using polyclonal sera as previously described. 9 For immunohistochemical studies, lung tissues were fixed in 10% buffered formalin for approximately 18 hours and transferred into 70% ethyl alcohol. Tissues were then processed in an automated tissue processor to paraffin blocks within 48 hours.…”

“…Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded lung sections from 2 calves that originated from an M. bovis-free herd and were experimentally infected with M. dispar, another pathogen commonly found in calf lungs, 9 and served as the negative tissue control. Positive tissue control consisted of M. bovisinfected bovine lung fibroblast and Madin-Darby bovine kidney cell lines.…”
