Abstract
Seroprevalence of Brucellosis in cattle of Swat Valley Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Pakistan
Highlights
Introduction infection in cattle named asBang's disease" is Brucellosis is an infectious zoonotic disease often shortened to just "bangs"
All the serum samples were tested through Rose Bengal precipitation test (RBPT) and i-ELISA while milk samples were processed through Milk Ring Test (MRT) and i-ELISA

Summary
Bang's disease" is Brucellosis is an infectious zoonotic disease often shortened to just "bangs" In cattle, this that is associated with chronic debilitating disease is called contagious abortion and infections in humans and reproductive failure infectious abortion is a dominant feature of in domestic animals [1]. Unpasteurized milk was considered the prime source of brucellosis; most humans contract the disease by coming in direct contact with aborted fetuses, after birth, and uterine discharges of diseased animals or with infected carcasses at slaughter [5]. Different assays can be used for screening mass-scale populations that includes SAT, Milk Ring Test (MRT), RBPT, and ELISA. The aim of this study was to look into the prevalence of B. abortus in cattle and to compare the efficacy of RBPT.
