Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is a Gram positive, acid-fast bacterium which causes Johne’s disease or Paratuberculosis in domestic livestock species. For screening of cows for MAP infection a total of 103 milk samples from individual cows were collected from organized (57) and unorganized (46) farms. Presence of anti-MAP antibodies in milk were screened by indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assays (iELISA) test, 72 (69.90%) cow milk samples were found positives (66.07% from organized farms and 74.46% from unorganized farms). Positivity percentages were 62.
