| Summary: | Background: Brucellosis is a zoonosis due to direct or indirect contact with
infected animal or its products of animal origin. The diseases in man take a long
time for recovery and, therefore, make the diseases economically important. There
was an increase of brucellosis cases of dairy cows in Sleman District in 2012. A
total of 25 cases was diagnosed in dairy cows and human involvement was
suspected. This study aimed to detect brucellosis among dairy farmers and farm
workers in the area and possible associated factors with the infection.
Methods: This study was a cross sectional design of observational study. The
target population was all dairy farmers and farm workers of Pakem sub district,
Sleman. A total of 137 persons was proportionally selected and included in the
study. The cow samples (166) of the suspected human samples were taken
simultaneously. All serum samples were serially subjected to Rose Bengal and
Complement Fixation Tests.
Results: Two of the human samples (1.46%) and 25 of 166 cows (15.1%)
revealed positive results in both tests. All infected humans were male, age of > 36
years old.
Conclusion: Prevalence of brucellosis in farmers and dairy farm workers in
Pakem sub district is 1.46%, and 15.1% of dairy cattle. Brucellosis on-farm and
dairy farm workers in Pakem sub district occurred in the > 35 years of age group
and male. There was no association between the behavior (drinking of raw milk,
consumption of food at cowshed, beverage consumption at cowshed, dealing with
abortion cattle, cultivate manure and habit of cleaning cowshed) and the
environment (cattle brucellosis status) with the incidence of brucellosis in farmers
and dairy farm workers in Pakem sub district, Sleman district. |
