Early Release - Mycobacterium bovis Infection in Free-Ranging African Elephants - Volume 27, Number 3—March 2021 - Emerging Infectious Diseases journal


Mycobacterium bovis infection in wildlife species occurs worldwide. However, few cases of
M. bovis infection in captive elephants have been reported. We describe 2 incidental cases of bovine tuberculosis in free-ranging African elephants (
Loxodonta africana) from a tuberculosis-endemic national park in South Africa and the epidemiologic implications of these infections.
Tuberculosis (TB), caused by the human pathogen
Mycobacterium tuberculosis, is a recognized disease in human-managed and wild Asian elephants (
Elephas maximus) and African elephants (
Loxodonta africana) (
3). Previous findings demonstrate the importance of human-elephant interfaces for transmission. However, range countries for African and Asian elephants also have high burdens of bovine TB, caused by ....

Stellenbosch University s (SU) Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences recently launched the Biomedical Research Institute (BMRI) Research Bronchoscopy Suite, housed within the Division of Molecular Biology and Human Genetics.
“The BMRI Research Bronchoscopy facility will pave the way for site-of-disease research for lung diseases, particularly tuberculosis, Prof Gerhard Walzl, head of the Division of Molecular Biology and Human Genetics said at the launch.
“The physical proximity of the facility to advanced microbacteriology, immunology and genomic research groups and laboratories of the new BMRI facility, and its proximity to established community-based research sites with a high TB-disease prevalence, unlocks major research opportunities of international importance. ....
