The animals suspected of being infective have to be tested by the specific tests for the diseases mentioned below:-
- Rinderpest or Cattle Plague. Serum neutralisation lest is employed in establishing the identity of the disease.
- Foot and Mouth Disease - No specific test other than the laborato ry and inoculation tests can confirm the disease.
- Haemorrhagic Septicaemia - Presence of Bipolar organisms of Pasteualle multocida will confirm the disease on microscopical exa minations of the materials obtained from the lesions or blood.
- Black-Quarter - Presence of the causative organism, vk Clostri- diurn group is positive indication of the disease on microscopical examination of the material collected from the lesion.
- Anthrax - Presence of Bacilus Anthracis will confirm the disease on microscopical examination of blood and other materials collected from the blood.
- No specific Test other than by direct microscopic examination of tissues and Huids.
- Cultural methods by cultivating the Causative organism,
- By guinea Pig inoculation,
- Tuberculosis - Tuberculin test or any other method approved by Government from time to time to determine whether the animals are affected with Tuberculosis or not. Any animal which has reacted to Tuberculin test or has been shown to be affected with Tuberculo sis shall be deemed to be affected with Tuberculosis and shall be permanently marked in the right ear by the Veterinary Surgeon performing the test with letter T*.
- Johne's Disease - Testing of animals either with Avain Tuberculin, or Johnin or other approved product may determine whether they are affected with Johne's Diseases or not. Any animal which reacts to the approved test or has been shown to be affected with Johne's Disease otherwise shall be deemed to be affected with Johne's Disease and shall be permanently marked in the right ear by the Veterinary Surgeon performing the test with letter 'J'

- Epizootic Lymphangitis - The presence of Cryptococcus fracimino- sus organisms on microscopical examination shall be diagnostic evidence.
- Dourine - Is confirmed by Ihe presence of the Trypanosoma Equiper- dum in tissue fluid.
- Rabies. - Clinical observations for a period not exceeding 10 days will give confirmatory evidence.
- Sura - Presence of Trypanasoma Evansi in the blood or body fluids on microscopical examination will confirm the disease.
- Strangles - Clinical evidence can be confirmed by microscopical tests.
- Contagious Caprine Pleuro Phneumonia. - Clinical evidence confirmed by Laboratory tests.
- Brucellosis - Serological test or Ring test (A.B.R.Test)
- Contagious Bovine Pleuro Phneumonia - Clinical evidence which can be confirmed by laboratory findings.
- Swine Fever - Clinical evidence, confirmed by the demonstration of the casual organism.
- Ranikhet disease - Clinical evidence confirmed by Haemegglutina- tion tests.
- Salmonellosis - Confirmed by Serologic Tests.
- South African Horse sickness. - Clinical evidence confirmed by labo ratory findings.
