Antigenic analysis of M. paratuberculosis revealed extensive cross-reactivity with M. avium; however, the number of cross-reactive antigens found was dependent on the strain of M. avium tested. One antigen was shown to be the common antigen while another appeared to be iron-regulated in its production. A commercial polyclonal antibody to M. paratuberculosis produced a CIE precipitin pattern comparable to that of the antibody produced for the present study. An antigen designated no. 6 was consistently precipitated by sera from cattle infected with M. paratuberculosis. This antigen exhibited complete cross-reaction with M. avium and partial cross-reaction with M. phlei. Among three commercially available complement fixation (CF) antigen that could be precipitated by M. paratuberculosis antibodies. A commercial antigen for use in an agar gel immunodiffusion test for Johne's disease diagnosis produced 12 precipitins with the M. paratuberculosis antibody, one of which was identical with antigen 6.
