Abstract

Background and Objectives: Brucellosis is one of the most important zoonosis diseases. The aim was to estimate the SEROPREVALENCE OF BRUCELLOSIS in rural CATTLE, sheep, and goat of BUSHEHR PROVINCE.Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in 2012-2014. For the CATTLE population, a total of 118 villages and 891 CATTLE and for sheep and goat population, a total of 202 villages, 526 flocks, 3064 sheep, and 7182 goats were included. Samples were examined with Rose Bengal, 2-mercaptoethanol and wright tests.Results: In the CATTLE population, 28 out of 118 villages (20.34%, CI 95%: 13.94%-28.73%) and 20 out of 891 CATTLE (3.36%, CI 95%: 2.28-4.77%) were seropositive. Additionally, in the sheep and goat population, 89 out of 202 villages (44.06%, CI 95%: 37.10%-51.20%), 142 out of 526 flocks (27%, CI 95%: 23.25%-31%), and 335 out of 10246 SHEEP AND GOATS (3.27%, CI 95%: 2.93%-3.63%) were seropositive.The prevalence at the individual level of all animals was 3.53%in 2012 which was significantly higher than 2013 (2.59%) (P=0.02). Totally, in 3 years, the prevalence of brucellosis in sheep (3.88%) was significantly higher than goats (3%) (P=0.02) and the prevalence in female animals (3.52%) was significantly higher than male animals (1.58%) (P<0.001).Conclusion: Due to the reduction of the prevalence, the test and slaughter policy together with the could further reduce and control the spread of the disease in the animal population.
