“…However, in 2008, Ramos and colleagues reported 4.4% seropositivity in an occupational group exposed to risk factors in Tocantins in the north of the country [14] and, in the same year, a report targeting individuals in rural populations in Pernambuc in northeast Brazil with occupational risk factors such as working with cattle or in slaughterhouses revealed an incidence of 1.8% [15]. The seropositivity found in the present study (13%) is also higher than that reported in Costa Rica (0.87%) [16] and Tanzania (5.5%) [17] for individuals with occupational hazards, but is lower than that reported in Colombia for individuals working in Brucella vaccination programs (34%) [18]. …”

“…Son pocos los estudios con muestras poblacionales humanas que puedan servir como referencia; más bien, los datos que se obtiene para Costa Rica se desprenden de los registros de la CCSS, del Ministerio de Salud o del Inciensa. Chanto et al (2007), en un estudio de 714 pobladores de Potrero Cerrado y Santa Rosa, del cantón de Oreamuno, Cartago, población considerada de riesgo aumentado por estar expuestos al contacto con bovinos y sus secreciones, así como los subproductos de la leche, encuentran 0,87% de personas seropositivas, lo cual contrasta con los resultados de este estudio.…”

“…Esta situación crea dudas en la prevalencia de la enfermedad, en personas, en esta región. Por otra parte, en un estudio realizado en los distritos de Potrero Cerrado y Santa Rosa, del Cantón de Oreamuno de Cartago, se detecta, en personas, una seroprevalencia menor al 1%; en ninguno de los casos se trata de una infección activa (Chanto et al 2007).…”

“…All animal sera samples were initially screened by RBT and then by iELISA, cELISA and FPA, following the procedures described elsewhere [ 13 , 15 , 17 ]. For humans, RBT and microagglutination in 96/well round bottom plates were used for screening, as described before [ 19 ].…”
