Brucellosis, a contagious reproductive disease of livestock, has a significant economic impact in terms of abortions and stillbirths and has zoonotic importance. A study was conducted to estimate the seroprevalence of brucellosis in a bovine population in Haryana state, India. This study was carried out on 4325 bovine serum samples (Cattle: 2151, Buffalo: 2174) using the Rose Bengal Plate Test (RBPT) and indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (i-ELISA). The seroprevalence, estimated individually by the RBPT and i-ELISA, was found to be 6.86% (95% CI: 6.11-7.62) and 6.05% (95% CI: 5.34-6.76), respectively. In total, 258 out of 4325 (5.96%; 95% CI: 5.25-6.67) samples were found to be positive by both assays. The prevalence was found to be significantly higher in the cattle population (7.58%) as compared to buffalo (4.37%) (Chi-square = 19, < 0.001). Seroprevalence was highest in the agroclimatic zone I (8.73%), followed by zone II (7.33%) and zone III (1.45%) (Chi-square = 76.27, < 0.001).
布鲁氏菌病是一种家畜传染性生殖疾病，在流产和死产方面具有重大经济影响，且具有人畜共患病的重要性。开展了一项研究，以估计印度哈里亚纳邦牛群中布鲁氏菌病的血清流行率。本研究使用玫瑰红平板试验（RBPT）和间接酶联免疫吸附测定（i-ELISA）对4325份牛血清样本（牛：2151份，水牛：2174份）进行检测。通过RBPT和i-ELISA单独估计的血清流行率分别为6.86%（95%置信区间：6.11 - 7.62）和6.05%（95%置信区间：5.34 - 6.76）。在4325份样本中，共有258份（5.96%；95%置信区间：5.25 - 6.67）通过两种检测均呈阳性。结果发现，牛群中的流行率（7.58%）显著高于水牛群（4.37%）（卡方 = 19，< 0.001）。血清流行率在农业气候区I最高（8.73%），其次是区II（7.33%）和区III（1.45%）（卡方 = 76.27，< 0.001）。
