Background: Porcine brucellosis is a contagious and emerging zoonosis but neglected in most of the endemic countries including India. The disease pigs rarely reported due to non-availability diagnostics or major focus on bovine brucellosis. Hence, necessity was felt diagnose porcine by Monoclonal antibody based ELISA, RBPT STATS for detection anti-Brucella antibodies record spatial seroprevalen...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease of worldwide distribution and has great economic importance. Despite its control in many countries, it remains endemic in Iran. Brucellosis was investigated in many high risk occupational groups; however, few studies on the prevalence of brucellosis among blood donors are available. To determine the seroprevalence of brucellosis antibod...

AIM To establish the etiology of recent out break of polyarthritis which occurred in Kanvari village of Churu district of Rajasthan in August, 1999. METHODOLOGY Forty eight patients of polyarthritis were studied by Hb, TDLC, ESR, CRP, throat swab Gram's stain and culture, blood culture, ASO titer, rheumatoid factor, Rose Bengal plate agglutination test, standard tube agglutination test for br...

The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied for immunological diagnosis of human tularemia, using lipopolysaccharide from Francisella tularensis as antigen. Sera collected from patients, healthy individuals, and vaccinated volunteers were investigated for antibodies against F. tularensis by ELISA and tube agglutination. In ELISA all sera were titrated with a polyspecific anti-immu...

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease prevalent in many countries, but it has been reported only once in Thailand, 36 years ago. We describe here two consecutive cases of brucellosis in Bangkok, Thailand. Both cases presented with prolonged fever and weight loss. Blood cultures taken from 2 patients yielded Brucella melitensis. The slide agglutination test of blood samples were also positive, with ...

Brucellosis is a contagious zoonosis caused by Brucella Infection transmitted wools, hairs, milk, butter, cheese and meats of infected animals. Skin, conjuctiva respiratory mucosa also constitutes entry routes for bacteria other than digestive system. Wright agglutination generally used diagnosis.In this study. agglutinins were searched in the sera 100 butchers method. The results compared with...

the aim of the present study was to evaluate the presence anti- e. coli, -rotavirus and -coronavirus, in calves' sera. a total of 184 calves under 1 month of age (84 diarrheic & 100 normal) was studied. serological tests including: direct elisa for detection of anti-k99 e. coli, - rotavirus and - coronavirus and tube agglutination test for detection anti-o157 e. coli, antibodies were used....

Anti-D immunoglobulin; BioVue column agglutination test; Quality control; Haemolytic disease; Anti-Rh(D) titration; Rh-factor Abstract The preparation anti-D immunoglobulin is an important therapy for both treatment and protection. Titer of anti-D immunoglobulin preparation is an important factor to determine the dose of treatment. Many methods are used to evaluate the titer of anti-D immunoglo...
