Figure 2

Evaluation of IGRA for MTBC detection. (A) The amount of eIFNγ produced from PBMCs after stimulation with mitogen for 72 h (n = 12). ns not significant with p-value > 0.05, ND not detected. (B) Serological detection by DPP VetTB assays. The images represent the results obtained for nonreactive and reactive samples from confirmed cases of TB in elephants. (C) The follow-up test using IGRA and DPP VetTB assay. (D) The response of PBMCs against PPDB and PPDA by using IGRA.
