Medical - Livestock / Animal Husbandry / Screening for bovine TB
French term or phrase: tuberculination
In a series of "do's and don'ts" for screening procedures, within a Min of Ag document - I am pretty sure that I am right with "tuberculin injection", particularly as one sector refers to "intradermotuberculination" (yes - all one word!) and I can't see how else one would administer tuberculin to an animal -
But I would appreciate confirmation by someone who actually understands the process. Thanks.
