The objetive of this study was to determine the prevalence of brucelosis in goats at the province of Barranca, Lima (districts of Paramonga, Pativilca, Barranca and Supe). The Rose Bengal agglutination test was used in 392 female goats older than 3 months that were not vaccinated against brucellosis. No positive samples were found posibly due to the effective programme of control and eradication carried out since 1997 by the Ministry of Health and SENASA (Servicio Nacional de Sanidad Agraria).
El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la prevalencia de anticuerpos frente a Neospora caninum en bovinos de establos de la cuenca lechera del departamento de Lima, Perú, y la concordancia entre dos técnicas diagnósticas empleadas para la detección de anticuerpos en suero: ensayo de inmunoabsorción ligado a enzimas (ELISA) e inmunofluorescencia indirecta (IFI). El estudio se realizó entre junio de 2015 y diciembre de 2016 en muestras de suero de 3407 bovinos lecheros provenientes de 101 establos de Lima (Barranca, Huaura, Huaral, Canta, Lima, Huarochirí, Cañete y Yauyos). La prevalencia de la infección a N. caninum fue de 31.0% (1023/3407) obtenida por ELISA y 29.9% (1018/3407) por IFI. La concordancia entre ambas técnicas diagnósticas fue buena (K=0.98) y estadísticamente significativa (p<0.001). Asimismo, 69 de los 101 establos resultaron positivos (68.3%). Los resultados demostraron que los bovinos de establos lecheros de Lima tienen prevalencia individual moderada y alta prevalencia intra-rebaño frente a N. caninum.
Agradezco a Dios, a mis Padres y a todas1as personas que permitieron realizar este trabajo. This study purpose was the seroprevalence determination of Brucella sp.in Goats from Huarochiri , Lima. There have been recollected 384 blood samples from female, goats with more than 6 months of age, without vaccination, since July up to december 2002, in the districts of San Mateo, Matucana, Surco, San Bartolomé, Huarochirí, Mariatana, Tupicocha, Santo Domingo de Olleros, Langa and Antioquia; for the Antibodies detection, using the Rosa de Bengala Technique. There was found that the 100% of animais were negative to the test. This study result proves a 0% seroprevalence.
