Soroprevalência da infecção por Brucella ovis em ovinos explorados na microrregião homogênea de Teresina, Piauí, Brasil.
[Brucella ovis infection seroprevalence in sheep exploited the homogeneous micro Teresina, Piaui, Brazil]. Abstract: Considering the importance of this disease and the lack of data on the state of Piauí, the aim of this study was to determine the sero-epidemiological situation of Brucella ovis infection in sheep from Teresina homogeneous microregion, Piauí. The study included a sampling universe of 282 sheep distributed in 24 herds, and the samples were collected by venipuncture of the jugular vein. Serology for detection of anti-B. ovis antibodies was performed by the method of agarose gel immunodiffusion (AGID). Of the 282 samples tested, there was 5.67% (16/282) positive to B. ovis infection by immunodiffusion in agarose gel test. Brucella ovis is present in sheep flocks in Teresina homogeneous microregion, necessitating thus the implementation of control measures to prevent the spread of this disease.
