results in this setting, detection rate of the disease is 34.86%, if the high normal titer for the wrights test titer assumed 1/80 and is 44.95% if the titer assumed 1/40, while elisa test had detection rate of 58.72% for those suspicious cases. furthermore, the detection rate for diagnosis of active brucellosis with 2me tests was 17.54% with high normal titer of 1/80 and was 59.64% with a high...
