Post-vaccination sero-monitoring of bovine calves in Indian subcontinent: A review on progress towards brucellosis control
Brucellosis caused by Brucella abortus remains a major zoonotic challenge in India, causing substantial economic losses in livestock and public health risks. Although India has implemented nationwide S19 vaccination in cattle and buffaloes, comprehensive evaluation of its effectiveness across different regions and between species has been lacking. This study sought to assess post-vaccination sero-conversion rates in calves of aged 4–8 months across five Indian states/union territories (UTs), examine species-specific differences in vaccine response between cattle and buffaloes, and generate practical recommendations to optimize the national brucellosis control program. A multi-phase sero-monitoring study analyzed 19,893 serum samples, comprising 16,085 cattle calves and 3609 buffalo calves during 2021–2024. The samples were collected from Andhra Pradesh, Chandigarh, Haryana, Odisha, and Tamil Nadu and tested using laboratory standardized indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA).Significant disparities were observed between species with overall sero-conversion rates of 75.87 % in cattle versus 67.22 % in buffaloes (p < 0.001). Tamil Nadu demonstrated exceptional performance (84.61 %; 95 % CI: 84.20–84.95), with districts like Namakkal achieving 100 % sero-conversion. Other regions showed varied efficacy: Chandigarh (80.77 %), Andhra Pradesh (69.52 %), and Haryana (69.43 %) consistently exhibited 10–15 % lower rates in buffaloes (p < 0.001). Odisha displayed notable phase-wise improvement (71.84 %; CI: 70.02–71.12), with Jagatsinghpur district reaching 97.85 % and buffalo calves improving from 17.64 % (Phase I) to 57.5 %. While, the S19 program achieves moderate efficacy but highlights species-specific disparities and replicable success models such as Tamil Nadu. Targeted buffalo vaccination strategies and adoption of best practices are recommended to achieve > 80 % vaccination coverage thereby herd immunity. Overall, this study provides an evidence-based framework for strengthening India’s brucellosis control program and contributing to global eradication efforts.
期刊介绍:
The journal reports basic, comparative and clinical immunology as they pertain to the animal species designated here: livestock, poultry, and fish species that are major food animals and companion animals such as cats, dogs, horses and camels, and wildlife species that act as reservoirs for food, companion or human infectious diseases, or as models for human disease.
Rodent models of infectious diseases that are of importance in the animal species indicated above,when the disease requires a level of containment that is not readily available for larger animal experimentation (ABSL3), will be considered. Papers on rabbits, lizards, guinea pigs, badgers, armadillos, elephants, antelope, and buffalo will be reviewed if the research advances our fundamental understanding of immunology, or if they act as a reservoir of infectious disease for the primary animal species designated above, or for humans. Manuscripts employing other species will be reviewed if justified as fitting into the categories above.
The following topics are appropriate: biology of cells and mechanisms of the immune system, immunochemistry, immunodeficiencies, immunodiagnosis, immunogenetics, immunopathology, immunology of infectious disease and tumors, immunoprophylaxis including vaccine development and delivery, immunological aspects of pregnancy including passive immunity, autoimmuity, neuroimmunology, and transplanatation immunology. Manuscripts that describe new genes and development of tools such as monoclonal antibodies are also of interest when part of a larger biological study. Studies employing extracts or constituents (plant extracts, feed additives or microbiome) must be sufficiently defined to be reproduced in other laboratories and also provide evidence for possible mechanisms and not simply show an effect on the immune system.
