The study was conducted in December-February 2013 in selected farms in four municipalities of Nueva Vizcaya. It aimed to determine the presence of tuberculosis infection among goat stocks using Tuberculin test.
A total of 146 goats of different ages were used in the study. Prevalence of tuberculosis of goats was assessed in relation to classification and sex for animal. Tuberculin PPD was administered intradermally on the critical region of the test animals, and reaction was evaluated 3 days after injection.
The survey showed that no test animal reacted to tuberculin test. This means that caprine tuberculosis is apparently absent in all the study animals at selected farms in four municipalities.
