Abstract

The role of trade cattle in the transmission of brucellosis was evaluated by determining the prevalence of Brucella antibodies in the traditional herd and in trade cattle. Rose Bengal Plate Test (RBPT), and serum agglutination test (SAT) were used to assay 162 and 56 serum samples collected from traditional herds and trade stock respectively. Results showed that RBPT detected 17.9% [95% (CI 17.4 to 18.4)] and SAT (10.5%) [95% (CI 10.1 to 10.8)] Brucella abortus seropositive cattle in the traditional herds. Based on SAT, the seropositivity was significantly higher in adult cattle (14.3%) [95% (CI 13,5 to 15.1)] than in young cattle (5.1%) [95% (CI 4.5 to 5.7)] (p Tanzania Veterinary Journal Vol. 25 (1) 2008: pp. 48-59

交易牛在坦桑尼亚卡拉圭地区布鲁氏菌病传播中的作用研究

通过测定传统牛群和交易牛中布鲁氏菌抗体的流行率，评估了交易牛在布鲁氏菌病传播中的作用。采用玫瑰孟加拉平板试验(RBPT)和血清凝集试验(SAT)分别对162份和56份传统牛和交易牛的血清进行检测。结果表明，RBPT在传统牛群中检测出17.9% [95% (CI 17.4 ~ 18.4)]和10.5% [95% (CI 10.1 ~ 10.8)]的流产布鲁氏菌血清阳性。基于SAT，成年牛的血清阳性(14.3%)[95% (CI 13,5至15.1)]明显高于小牛(5.1%)[95% (CI 4.5至5.7)](p Tanzania Veterinary Journal Vol. 25 (1) 2008: pp. 48-59)
