Sero-prevalence of Brucellosis in Goats and Women
Page No. : 115-116
ABSTRACT
A serological study was conducted to assess the seroprevalence of brucellosis in goats and women in far flung Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir State. A total of 200 serum samples, 185 from goats and 15 from women were screened by Rose-Bengal plate agglutination test and serum tube agglutination test. Of the goat samples, 150 were from apparently healthy animals and 35 with the history of abortion in the last trimester of pregnancy. Three samples were found positive for brucellosis, two from goats and one from women.Keywords: Brucellosis, goats, seroprevalence, women
