An overview is given about the most common immunological methods for the diagnosis of bovine tuberculosis. These methods are based on cell mediated immune reactions on the one hand (intradermal skin test, interferon-gamma-test, lymphocyte transformation test) or on antibody production against Mycobacterium bovis on the other hand (ELISA). The advantages and disadvantages of the methods as well as their specificity and sensitivity are discussed.
本文概述了诊断牛结核病最常用的免疫学方法。这些方法一方面基于细胞介导的免疫反应（皮内皮肤试验、干扰素-γ试验、淋巴细胞转化试验），另一方面基于针对牛分枝杆菌产生的抗体（酶联免疫吸附测定）。文中讨论了这些方法的优缺点及其特异性和敏感性。
