[Antibody levels to B. abortus, B. canis and C. burnetti in the sera of patients with brucellosis-like symptoms].
The serum specimens of patients attending clinics and polyclinics of our hospital and suspected of having brucellosis were evaluated for B. abortus, B. canis and C. burnetti by Wright agglutination, 2ME. TAT (2 mercaptoethanol Tube Agglutination) and KBR (Complement Fixation reaction) tests. A total of 514 sera was examined gram 296 men and 218 women. We detected antibody to C. burnetti 156 (30,39%) of the sera and B. canis in 43 (8.3%) and to B. abortus in 32 (6.2%).
