A cross-sectional study was conducted on 500 cattle slaughtered at Addis Ababa abattoir to
determine the prevalence of bovine tuberculosis (BTB) and characterize its causative
agents. Postmortem examination, mycobacteriological culturing, region of difference-4
(RD4)-based PCR and spoligotyping were applied. The prevalence of BTB was 5% on the
basis of postmortem inspection alone but 1.2% based on molecular confirmation. Factors
including age, sex, and breed showed statistically significant association with BTB (p< 0.05) …
