Bovine tuberculosis remains a significant animal and public health concern in many regions due to its zoonotic potential and the trade restrictions it triggers for affected herds. This rapid test detects antibodies against M. tuberculosis in bovine serum or plasma, offering a faster field-screening option to complement the traditional tuberculin skin test, useful as a preliminary check before formal veterinary confirmation. Shelf life is 18 months when stored at 2-30°C.
