The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH), is embarking on a crucial initiative to replace the current international standard for avian tuberculin, known as the International Standard Avian Tuberculin (ISAT). The current standard is depleting and, in an effort to ensure the production of a high-quality replacement, WOAH is reaching out to established manufacturers of avian tuberculin, inviting them to donate bulk candidate tuberculin for evaluation as a potential replacement for the current ISAT.
Send in applications by 16 February 2024
- More information on roles and evaluation process can be found in Annex I: Project background.
- For details on protocol and selection criteria, please refer to Annex II: Technical criteria for identification for the replacement of ISAT.
- Before proceeding with the online application form, we highly recommend that you carefully review the template for filling the online form in Annex III: Template – Information for filling the form for submission of candidate tuberculin
- Interested manufacturers are requested to fill the online form and upload relevant technical documents as outlined in Annex IV: Document checklist.
WOAH appreciates your support for this initiative.
