INDICATIONS FOR USE, SPECIFYING THE TARGET SPECIES
To be used for the _in vivo_ identification of cattle which have been
exposed to
_Mycobacterium _species causing bovine tuberculosis. Simultaneous
administration
of Bovine Tuberculin PPD 3000 and Avian Tuberculin PPD 2500 and
comparing
the degree of skin swelling of the two injection sites enables
differentiation
between the specific reaction in target species exposed to
_Mycobacterium _species
causing bovine tuberculosis_ _and the non-specific reaction in target
species, which
have been exposed to other species of Mycobacteria or related genera,
causing
cross sensitisation to Bovine Tuberculin PPD 3000.
4.3
CONTRA-INDICATIONS
None.
4.4
SPECIAL WARNINGS
For a reliable result of the Single Intradermal Comparative Cervical
Tuberculin
(SICCT) test the use of the Tuberculin PPD Kit in cattle should be
