Comparison of the sensitivity and specifity of modified Rose Bengal and ELISA test in the diagnosis of brucellosis
Background and Aim: Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease and is one of the major health problems in our country. Considering its nonspecific symptoms, diagnosis of this disease is often made by laboratory methods. The purpose of the present study was to compare the sensitivity and specificity of ELISA and a relatively new modified Rose Bengal test in the diagnosis of brucellosis. Material and Meth...
متن کاملELISA Cut-off Point for the Diagnosis of Human Brucellosis; a Comparison with Serum Agglutination Test
Background: Brucellosis is a world-wide disease, which has a diverse clinical manifestation, and its diagnosis has to be proven by laboratory data. Serum agglutination test (SAT) is the most-widely used test for diagnosing brucellosis. The enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) can also determine specific antibody classes against brucella. It is a sensitive, simple and rapid test, which coul...
متن کاملEpidemiology of bovine brucellosis by a combination of rose bengal test and indirect ELISA in the five districts of Uganda.
A serological survey on bovine brucellosis was carried out 3 times between 2007 and 2009 in 3 districts (Kiboga, Mpigi and Kiruhura) in western Uganda and 2 (Kumi and Mbale) in the east employing the rose bengal test (RBT) for infected-herd screening and an indirect ELISA (iELISA) for testing the serostatus of individual animals. The animal prevalence was significantly higher in the 3 districts...
متن کاملA Comparative Study of an Elisa Test and an Indirect Immunofluorescence Test for Serological Diagnosis of Babesia Bovis Infection
A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF AN ELISA TEST AND AN INDIRECT IMMUNOFLUORESCENCE TEST FOR SEROLOGICAL DIAGNOSIS OF BABESIA BOVIS INFECTION. Detection of antibodies to Babesia bovis in cattle is essential for the understanding of the epidemiology of babesiosis and this study was concerned with comparing the indirect fluorescent antibody with the ELISA. Both assays gave rise to 100% sensitivity whilst the...
متن کاملComparison of Wright Agglutination Test and ELISA in Diagnosis of Brucellosis
Abstract Background and Objective: In our country, the Wright test routinely is used for diagnosing brucellosis. Because of its low sensitivity, the range of false-negative results is high. Therefore, we aimed at comparing Wright and ELISA in the people suspected brucellosis. Material and Methods: The results of Wright, 2ME, Coombs Wright tests were compared with Anti-Brucella IgG, Anti-Bru...
