Abstract
BACKGROUND Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease caused by the bacteria, Brucella genus. Human is always an accidental host, infected from domesticated or wild animals. METHODS This study was conducted from September 2017 to April 2018. A total of 304 samples were collected in eight months duration from female of high-risk population connected with domesticated animals to investigate the sero-prevalence of Brucellosis using ELISA (Igm) in District Malakand, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan. RESULTS The high age wise prevalence was recorded as 32.25% in female with age group 21-30 by ELISA (P<0.05). The prevalent rate was significantly high (P<0.05) in Tehsil Batkhela (32.8%) than Dargai (22.75%). It was also recorded in the present study that the prevalence was higher from January to April. It was found 20.58%, 17.64%, 14.70%, 20.58%, 17.6%, 38.23%, 45.71% and 44.11% from September to April respectively. CONCLUSION The present study concluded that the prevalence of brucellosis is significantly high among the age group 20-40 and from January to April 2018. Further studies will be required to show the prevalence of the Brucellosis all over the country.

Abstract
Brucellosis is an infectious disease caused by bacteria of the genus Brucella (B.), affecting both animals and humans, causing severe economic loses and severe illness, respectively. The objective of the present study was to determine the seroprevalence and the risk factors associated with caprine, ovine, and bovine brucellosis in selected districts of Punjab, Pakistan. A total of 1083 blood samples were randomly collected from animals (goats = 440, sheep = 203, cows = 206, and buffaloes = 234). Questionnaires were used to collect data on risk factors associated with brucellosis on the sampling day. All samples were initially screened for anti-Brucella antibodies using the rose bengal plate test (RBPT). The seropositive serum samples were confirmed by a quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay for the detection of the Brucella genus- and Brucella species-specific DNA (B. abortus and B. melitensis). Univariant and binary logistic regression were used to identify important risk factors of brucellosis. Anti-Brucella antibodies and DNA were detected in 35 (3.23%) serum samples. Thirty-four (97.1%) DNA samples were confirmed as B. melitensis by qRT-PCR. Abortion history and natural mating were found to be potential risk factors. Brucella melitensis was identified as the causative agent of caprine, ovine, and bovine brucellosis in the selected districts of Punjab, Pakistan. Diseased animals may act as a source of infection for other animals. The elimination of positive seroreactors, development of control strategies for brucellosis, and education programs regarding the control of zoonotic disease are highly needed in developing countries like Pakistan.

Abstract
Human brucellosis is now a rare disease in countries where eradication programs (especially vaccination) against brucellosis in cattle, sheep, and goats have been successfully implemented. In France, fewer than 50 brucellosis cases are annually notified to the National Institute for Infection Surveillance. Human brucellosis, however, remains endemic in the Mediterranean basin, Middle East, Western Asia, Africa, and South America. Shortcomings of standard diagnostic methods for brucellosis (variable sensitivity of culture, frequent serological cross reactions) have been only partially resolved by modern molecular biology techniques. There are now 3 new challenges to be faced by the medical and veterinarian community: the expanding wildlife reservoir of brucellosis, with a possible impact on domestic animals; the emergence of Brucella. melitensis infections in cattle, for which prophylactic efficacy of available vaccines has not been established; and recent recognition of a huge animal reservoir of Brucella species in marine mammals, for which the potential virulence in humans remains unknown.
