BACKGROUND Brucellosis remains a major worldwide zoonosis. Caprine brucellosis is a significant problem for both public health and animal production. Brucella melitensis causes disease in goats, sheep, humans, and occasionally cattle. Transmission is by ingestion or contact with infected materials, vaginal discharge, or milk. OBJECTIVES The current study aimed to determine the rate of B. meli...

Brucellosis is a disease of veterinary and public health importance worldwide. In sub-Saharan Africa, where the bacterium Brucella abortus has been identified in several free-ranging wildlife species, successful disease control may be dependent on accurate detection in wildlife reservoirs, including African buffalo (Syncerus caffer). We estimated the sensitivity and specificity of a commercial ...

A confirmed case of human brucellosis motivated an investigation into the potential source of infection in Namibia. Since domestic animals are principal sources of Brucella infection in humans, 1692 serum samples were screened from sheep, goats and cattle from 4 presumably at-risk farms and 900 springbok (Antidorcas marsupialis) serum samples from 29 mixed farming units for Brucella antibodies ...

Programming and coding are important skills competencies in the 21st century. Due to this importance, robotics programming has been introduced Malaysian education system since 2013. Robotics is because it could be used cultivate various skills. Various studies have conducted on its applications education, proponents of believe that using teach impactful effective context. On other hand, many st...

Anti-interception guidance can enhance a hypersonic glide vehicle (HGV) compard to multiple interceptors. In general, anti-interception for aircraft be divided into procedural guidance, fly-around and active evading guidance. However, these methods cannot applied an HGV’s unknown real-time process due limited intelligence information or on-board computing abilities. this paper, approach based o...

One of the new subjects that has replaced Integrated Life Skills (KH) subject starting January 2017 is Design and Technology (RBT), in which curriculum not divided into a mandatory elective portion like KH subject. As result, variety problems barriers are encountered during implementation RBT curriculum, including problem inadequate facilities equipment as well teachers who lack innovation how ...

Human brucellosis is a multisystem disease that commonly presents as a febrile illness along with variable spectrum of clinical manifestations. Neurological complications include encephalitis, meningoencephalitis, radiculitis, myelitis, peripheral and cranial neuropathies, subarachnoid hemorrhage, and psychiatric manifestations. We report a case diagnosed as neurobrucellosis who presented with ...

Sera from 432 small ruminants (335 sheep and 97 goats) from 72 farms in Duhok Province, northern Iraq, were collected to investigate risk factors associated with brucellosis seropositivity. Serum samples were tested using the Rose Bengal test (RBT) and an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA). Using parallel interpretation, RBT and iELISA results showed that 31.7% (95% confidence ...
