Mycobacteria were isolated from 14.3% of the tissues submitted to the National Veterinary Services Laboratories over a 5-year period (July 1, 1972, to June 30, 1977). The isolates were identified by drug susceptibility, and biochemical and serologic tests. Mycobacterium bovis isolated from tissues of cattle originating in 32 states and Puerto Rico accounted for 78% of the acid-fast isolations. Of the Mycobacterium bovis isolates, 4% were from tissues in which no microscopic tuberculous granulomas were observed on examination of tissue sections. Of the 119 Mycobacterium avium isolates, 18 were serotype 1, 44 were serotype 2, and 45 isolates represented 12 other serotypes.
在五年期间（1972年7月1日至1977年6月30日），提交给国家兽医服务实验室的组织样本中，14.3%分离出了分枝杆菌。分离株通过药敏试验、生化和血清学检测进行鉴定。从32个州和波多黎各的牛组织中分离出的牛分枝杆菌占抗酸菌分离株的78%。在牛分枝杆菌分离株中，4%来自组织切片检查未观察到微观结核性肉芽肿的组织。在119株鸟分枝杆菌分离株中，18株为血清型1，44株为血清型2，45株分离株代表其他12种血清型。
