Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) can cause a very serious, often-fatal disease, namely paratuberculosis, in several animal species, especially ruminants. Recently, it has also been implicated in the pathogenesis of Infectious Bowel Disease of man. The aim of this study was to develop a molecular method for the routine detection and identification of MAP, from tissue samples of animal origin. The proposed assay would have to combine optimum performance and cost, with high reproducibility. To this goal, three laboratories in Greece and the Czech Republic undertook different parts of a study that involved evaluation of DNA extraction procedures, and PCR assays, for MAP detection. For DNA extraction we used one in-house, and one commercial method, and for the PCR we assessed a number of different assays, starting with the evaluation of primer specificity with an extended GenBank database search. Based on these results, we chose to assess a one-tube nested, 2 two-tube nested, and a single PCR assay, targeted to different genomic regions of the IS900 element. These four methods were applied on positive and negative control samples, consisted of pure bacterial cultures and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue samples collected from cattle with paratuberculosis and chickens with M. avium subsp. avium infection. Based on the criteria of reliability and cost, the procedure that performed better was the one-tube nested PCR assay combined with the in-house DNA extraction method. The agreement of the results obtained by the three collaborating laboratories indicates the reliability of the proposed assay even under different laboratory conditions. © 2003 Elsevier B.V.
