Two to fourml of blood was taken from each patient from the peripheral vein usingtourniquet and alcohol 70% as a disinfectant. The samples were left toclot and the sera was separated and freezed.All the samples collected, 280, were screened for brucellaantibodies by Rose Bangal Plate Test (RBPT). The test wasdone by taking 0.03ml of the serum which was mixed with anequal amount of Rose Bangal antigen in a disc plate and mixedthoroughly with spreader, then the mixture put on an electricOrbital mixer for 4-5 minutes to allow agglutination to occurand the test read either positive or negative. Positive if there wasany degree of agglutination had occurred. The test had yielded11positive reactors, of which 10 gave positive agglutinationwith Serum Agglutination Test (SAT), which was a tubeagglutination test in which two types of antigen were used, onefor Br. Abortus and the other for Br. Melitensis, which wereboth the product of Crescent Diagnostics. However the overallprevalence was 3.5% for the agglutinated samples, which wasalmost the same as obtained by others.
