| 2014-17877 | Approved Tests for Bovine Tuberculosis in Cervids | Rule | We are amending the regulations regarding official tuberculosis tests for captive cervids to remove the CervidTB Stat- Pak[supreg] as an official bovine tuberculosis test for the following species of captive cervids: Elk, red deer, white-tailed deer, fallow deer, and reindeer. We are also amending the regulations to specify that the Dual Path Platform (DPP)[supreg] test, which was previously a supplemental test to be used in conjunction with the CervidTB Stat- Pak[supreg], is now considered a primary test, as well. We are taking this action because the CervidTB Stat-Pak[supreg] is no longer being produced, and because we have determined that the DPP[supreg] test can reliably be used as a primary test for bovine tuberculosis in certain species of captive cervids. This action is necessary on an immediate basis so that the regulations do not continue to authorize usage of a discontinued test, yet still provide regulated entities with options in order to meet the testing requirements for captive cervids within the regulations. | 2014-07-29 | 2014 | 7 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2014/07/29/2014-17877/approved-tests-for-bovine-tuberculosis-in-cervids | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-07-29/pdf/2014-17877.pdf | Agriculture Department; Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service | 12,22 | We are amending the regulations regarding official tuberculosis tests for captive cervids to remove the CervidTB Stat- Pak[supreg] as an official bovine tuberculosis test for the following species of captive cervids: Elk, red deer, white-tailed deer,... |
