| dc.description.abstract | Brucellosis is one of the major notifiable contagious bacterial disease of zoonotic importance in worldwide including India causing heavy economic loss. A limited work carried out to determine the prevalence of brucellosis in cattle and human in the districts of Bidar, Karnataka. So, the present study was undertaken to determine the seroprevalence of brucellosis in cattle and animal handlers (human). A total of 100 serum and 100 milk samples were collected farm-wise and subjected to RBPT, MRT and I-ELISA for confirmation of brucellosis in cattle. Animal handlers 25 sera were subjected to RBPT, STAT, 2-MET and I-ELISA. The overall prevalence of brucellosis was found to be 6 per cent, 5.00 per cent and 8 per cent by RBPT, MRT and I-ELISA respectively. Higher prevalence of brucellosis was recorded by I-ELISA followed by RBPT and MRT. I-ELISA revealed that prevalence of brucellosis was observed in humans 12 per cent and in case of cattle 8 per cent. It was also observed that higher prevalence of brucellosis found in cattle with the previous history of abortion (27.70%). On age-wise study, the higher prevalence was noticed in the above > 6 years (9.30%) age groups followed by 2-4 years (8.57%) and least in 1-2 years age group (4.54%). Among the tests performed for the diagnosis of brucellosis, sensitivity and specificity of RBPT was found to be high when compared to MRT, taking I-ELISA as standard test. Thus, Rose bengal plate test is a better screening test in detection of brucellosis in field level when compared to MRT. | |
