a: MAP Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis.
b: T1DM Type I Diabetes Mellitus, T2DM Type two Diabetes Mellitus.
c: UF University of Florida.
d: direct PCR: nested PCR was performed on DNA extracts from uncultured peripheral leukocytes.
e: culture: nested PCR was performed on DNA extracts from 6 months old culture of peripheral leukocytes.
f: anti-MAP IgG: IDEXX serologic kit was used to measure anti-MAP IgG titer.
