Brucellosis merupakan penyakit bakterial yang disebabkan oleh Brucella abortus, yang menga-kibatkan kerugian ekonomi akibat terjadinya keguguran pada sapi betina yang bunting pada triwulan ketiga kebuntingan. Surveilans brucellosis dalam mendukung pengembangan peternakan sapi di Propinsi Papua Barat telah dilakukan oleh Balai Besar Veteriner Maros. Tujuan pelaksanaan surveilans ini adalah untuk mengetahui seroprevalensi brucellosis pada sapi potong di Papua Barat. Surveilans dilakukan di 4 kabupaten/kota, 14 kecamatan dan 33 desa. Sebanyak 684 sampel serum sapi telah diambil guna pengujian terhadap brucellosis. Sampling dilakukan pada lokasi kabupaten, kecamatan dan desa terpilih yang padat ternak. Metode pengujian dilakukan secara seri, dengan melakukan screening test menggunakan Rose Bengal Test, yang bila hasilnya positif diuji lebih lanjut dengan Complement Fixation Test. Hasil pengujian menunjukkan adanya reaktor brucellosis pada 5 ekor dari 684 ekor sapi yang diambil dan diuji serumnya. Seroprevalensi brucellosis pada sapi sebesar 0,73% di desa Remu Utara, kecamatan Sorong, kota Sorong sebanyak 1 ekor serta di desa KaliMerah, kecamatan Masni, kabupaten Manokwari. Untuk mencegah penularan dan penyebaran brucellosis pada sapi maka sapi reaktor brucellosis segera dipotong dengan pengawasan dari petugas.

ABSTRACT This report is a summary of 10 years of experience with the complement fixation test as adopted for the immunoassay of HCG in serum. It is based on published as well as unpublished material. The discussion centers mainly around methodological problems, criteria of reliability, and clinical observations. It is our impression that the complement fixation test is a reasonably rapid and simple technical procedure. It is standard practice in every bacteriological and virological laboratory. The precision of the HCG assay is high. Its accuracy is good. The complement fixation assay, as reported here, fulfils the criteria of specificity. It has been evaluated by means of serological techniques and through comparison between biopotency and immunopotency of HCG in serum with reference to a common standard. Its application for routine as well as research work is illustrated.

Abstract The study was carried out in seven reproductive herds of pigs. In three of them reproductive disorders were observed. Three herds consisted of 10-50 and four consisted of 120-500 adult sows and they were called small and medium, respectively. Fifty-seven adult sows were randomly selected from herds. Serum samples were tested using the complement fixation test and swabs from both eyes and from the vaginal vestibule were examined using real-time PCR. All serum samples were negative. Infected sows were present in each of the study herds. In total, there were 28 positive samples (53%, 28/48) in real-time PCR in sows with reproductive disorders and 35 (53%, 35/66) in sows selected from herds without problems in reproduction. One isolate proved to be Chlamydophila pecorum, whereas all the remaining were Chamydia suis
