| Description |
A study to determine the sensitivity and specificity of standard tube agglutination test (STAT), and competitive ELISA (C-ELISA) in the diagnosis of bovine brucellosis was conducted on 95 diary cattle with the history and clinical symptom of abortion, retained fetal membrane, repeat breeding, arthritis/hygroma, pyrexia and 85 bulls from organised farms. Out of 180 serum samples 8 samples were positive by STAT and 16 were positive by C-ELISA. Among the two tests employed, C-ELISA detected maximum number of positive cases. The relative sensitivity and specificity in comparison with competitive ELISA was found to be 50 per cent and 100 per cent for STAT.
