The bison (Bison bison) of the Yellowstone ecosystem, USA, exemplify the difficulty of conserving large mammals that migrate across the boundaries of conservation areas. Bison are infected with brucellosis (Brucella abortus) and their seasonal movements can expose livestock to infection. Yellowstone National Park has embarked on a program of adaptive management of bison, which requires a model ...

INTRODUCTION In Niamey, Niger, interactions within the interface between animals, humans and the environment induce a potential risk of brucellosis transmission between animals and from animals to humans. Currently, little is known about the transmission of Brucella in this context. RESULTS 5,192 animals from 681 herds were included in the study. Serum samples and hygroma fluids were collecte...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to investigate the seroprevalence of brucellosis among high-risk group individuals, consisting of veterinarians and para-veterinarians, shepherds, butchers and animal owners. METHODS The present work was carried out at Project Directorate on Animal Disease Monitoring and Surveillance, Bangalore, by using the recently developed indirect enzyme-linked immun...

Brucellosis due to Brucella suis biovar 2 is one of the most important endemic diseases in wild boar (Sus scrofa) populations in Europe. The aim of the present study was to determine the seroprevalence of brucellosis in wild boars in the eastern part of Latvia. Wild boars killed by hunters in the period from January to April 2015 (n = 877) and from March to April in 2016 (n = 167) were examined...

Abstract Brucellosis caused by Brucella abortus and melitensis is endemic in the Republic of Azerbaijan but a complex mix fiscal, political technical constraints has impeded regulatory authority decision making for adoption sustainable national control programme. This paper reports series epidemiologic studies disease animals humans which we conducted between 2009 2020. A preliminary study subs...

Introduction Brucellosis is a neglected zoonosis of public health importance. This study was conducted to determine the prevalence and risk factors of brucellosis among slaughtered cattle as well as challenges to the protection of abattoir workers in Nigeria. Methods A slaughterhouse study was conducted in a major abattoir in Ibadan from March to August, 2013. To diagnose brucellosis, serum s...

Summary This study was designed to determine the seroprevalence rate of Brucellosis and identify risk factors for Brucella infection in camels intended export from Kassala State. A total 400 blood samples were collected serum all localities, tested using Rose Bengal Plate test (RBPT) Competitive Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay C.ELISA). The prevalence (29.5 %) (27.8%) based on results RBPT C....
