The aim of the study was to determine the prevalence of bovine tuberculosis in the Kayseri province in Turkey and to compare histopathology and direct microscope examinations, culture and BACTEC radiometric methods. The lungs and bronchial and mediastinal lymph nodes, collected from 3216 cattle slaughtered at 5 slaughterhouses belonging to both the public and private sector, were examined from September 2003 to August 2004. In macroscopic examinations lesions were noted in 248 (7.7%) of the cattle. In histopathology examinations caseous tuberculosis was observed in 57% of the lungs, in 57% of the bronchial and in 53% of the mediastinal lymph nodes. In direct microscopy, acid-fast bacilli were seen in 33% of the lungs, in 33% of the bronchial and in 28% of the mediastinal lymph nodes. In culture, Mycobacterium bovis was isolated in 19% of the lungs, 19% of the bronchial and in 17% of the mediastinal lymph nodes. In the BACTEC method, Mycobacterium spp. was isolated in 21% of the lungs, in 21% of the bronchial and in 17% of the mediastinal lymph nodes. In conclusion, the prevalence of bovine tuberculosis in slaughtered cattle in Kayseri province is 1.49%, and the BACTEC radiometric method is a rapid and sensitive method for diagnosing M. bovis.

The spatial distribution of urine and faecal scent marks of badgers Meles meles (Linnaeus, 1758) at low population density (mean ± SE across 4 social groups was 5.73 ± 0.735 badgers/km2) in south-western England were quantified. Eighteen badger latrines (greater than one dung pit containing faeces), 74 single defecations not in pits and 21 faeces in single pits were located in spring when badgers were defending well-defined territories. Woodland was selected, and arable land avoided, for latrine sites. Pasture and built-up land was selected for single defecations not in pits whereas faeces in single pits were distributed randomly across habitat types. Faecal scent marks were strongly associated with the edge of pastoral fields rather than the middle. Forty-six and 51 urinations were located in spring and summer, respectively. Urine was deposited randomly across habitat types but was concentrated at the linear features surrounding the main setts. This is the first reported use of high levels of single defecations and urinations in badger scent marking strategies in the UK. These results are discussed in relation to the potential for transmission of bovine tuberculosis Mycobacterium bovis from badger excreta to cattle.
