The department may refuse to accept any tuberculin test or tests of native or imported cattle, either made or alleged to have been made, which in its judgment have not been properly conducted and hold such cattle in segregation and quarantine at the owner's expense subject to an official test.
If the owner of cattle so quarantined shall request the department to authorize an official tuberculin test of the cattle and agree to carry out all the provisions of this article and the rules and regulations of the state board of agriculture, reactors found on such test or tests may be appraised, if eligible to appraisement, and indemnity paid as provided in this article.
