ABSTRACT:
A test to diagnose the presence of Johne's disease is disclosed. In one aspect it involves using a DNA segment that will hybridize to M. paratuberculosis but not to other bacteria typically found in bovine feces. Another aspect of the invention is providing a process for breaking the cell wall of mycobacteria using dense beads in the presence of phenol.
