Brucellosis, a bacterial zoonoses caused by the genus Brucella is responsible for abortion and infertility in cow. Brucellosis is causing economic loss in dairy industries and prevalent worldwide including Bangladesh but limited studies are devoted to determine the prevalence and its association with reproductive factors of dairy cows in Bangladesh. Therefore, the present study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence of brucellosis in dairy cattle using screening test Rose Bengal test (RBT) and the positive sera were further confirmed by indirect- ELISA. For this purpose, a total of 400 serum samples from dairy cows with history of abortion and various reproductive disorders were collected from the Kurigram district of Bangladesh for the detection of Brucella antibody. The overall prevalence of brucellosis in dairy cattle was 2.25%. Brucellosis in cases of abortion and repeat breeding was 8.3% and 2.8%, respectively. The results shows higher prevalence of brucellosis in cases of abortion followed by repeat breeding, while there was no seropositive cases from other reproductive disorders. Age-wise seroprevalence was found 3.0% in 2 ∼ 3 years age group and 2.0% in 4 ∼ 8 years age group. The prevalence of brucellosis in indigenous and cross-bred cattle was 3.6% and 1.7%, respectively. All the animals detected positive to brucellosis by RBT were not found to be positive by i-ELISA. However, the RBT might be a suitable screening test for the diagnosis of Brucella infection in field condition in Bangladesh. These data will help to develop effective disease prevention strategies.

To determine the prevalence of the brucellosis in dairy cattle in selected regions (six upazilas of Kurigram district) in Bangladesh by detecting the Brucella antigen by RBT and i-ELISA.

A total of 400 blood samples were collected from dairy cattle aged over ≥ 2 years with the history of re- peat breeding, anoestrus, retention of placenta, dystocia, prolapse of uterus and abortion of six upazilas in Kurigram district. Total cattle population in Kurigram district is 0. 71 million and there are 457 registered dairy farms in Kurigram district. There is a corridor in Kurigram Sadar for importation of cattle from India (DLO Office Kurigram, 2007). There are lots of cases for abortion, repeat breeding, retention of placenta and other reproductive disorders are frequently reported in different regions in Kurigram district which are thought to be for brucellosis. So far literature reviewed, there was no survey carried out in Kurigram district for the determination of prevalence of brucellosis in dairy cattle. Therefore, six upazilas of Kurigram district was considered for this study. Number of serum samples collected from Ulipur, Rajarhat, Kurigram Sadar, Nageswari, Roumari, and Chilmari upazilas were 100, 120, 90, 50, 20, and 20, respectively. The study was conducted for a period of 6 months from June, 2011 through November, 2011 in the Department of Medicine, Faculty of Veterinary Science, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh. All the blood samples were processed for serum preparation and then subjected to RBT as a screening test using B. abortus antigen (obtained from Dae Sung Microbiological lab, South Korea). The test was performed according to the procedure as described by the OIE (2009). All the samples found to be positive in RBT were further confirmed using i-ELISA in the OIE reference laboratory for brucellosis in Jena, Germany. The assay was performed according to the protocol provided by the manufacturer’s instructions (Svanova Biotech AB, Uppsala, Sweden). The Chi-square test was employed to find out the significant differences in the prevalence in terms of age, breed and different reproductive disorders of cattle.

In the present study, i-ELISA in conjunction with RBT was employed to compare the efficacy, testing of 31 samples by both RBT and i-ELISA revealed that 3 samples were positive and 22 were negative by both the tests while additional six samples were negative by i-ELISA only. It may be concluded that RBT could be an important screening test for brucellosis in Bangladesh and the doubtful and positive cases could be further validated or confirmed using i-ELISA. This study showed that prevalence of brucellosis is related to the reproductive problems of cows in Bangladesh. These results will help the livestock department to design preventive measure for brucellosis which is causing huge economic losses in Bangladesh.
