Bovine tuberculosis is a chronic bacterial infection caused by Mycobacterium bovis that primarily affects cattle but can also infect other animals and humans. It is a major public health concern worldwide, particularly in developing countries where it can have significant economic impact on livestock industries. Bovine tuberculosis is spread through the inhalation of infectious aerosols or consumption of contaminated milk or meat. Research in this area focuses on developing effective diagnostic tests, vaccines, and control measures to prevent the spread of the disease among livestock and to humans. Additionally, efforts are made to understand the epidemiology of the disease and the factors that contribute to its transmission in order to develop more targeted interventions.
