Abstract

The article presents the results of their own research on the identification of a patient with cattle tuberculosis in a state of anergy to the intradermal administration of tuberculin. The problem of anergy is relevant for the rehabilitation of dysfunctional farms. Animals in a state of anergy do not respond to intradermal administration of tuberculin and, remaining in the herd, are a source of infection. The authors used different diagnostic methods to additionally identify sick animals in herds that are unsuccessful for tuberculosis. The authors found that in long-term dysfunctional farms with the mass spread of tuberculosis, health measures should be carried out only by completely replacing the entire livestock population.
