ABSTRACT
For the primary isolation of Mycobacterium bovis from bovine lesions, 1-hexadecylpyridinium chloride (HPC) at a concentration of 0.75% was as effective as 2% NaOH in controlling the growth of contamination. The advantages of using HPC over NaOH are that it is a rapid one-step procedure not requiring neutralisation with acid, it is less toxic to M. bovis thus increasing isolation rates, and it promotes the earlier appearance of colonies.
