Abstract

There are reports that the neglected zoonotic tropical disease brucellosis is reemerging today. Serological tests are being widely used in the diagnosis of brucellosis. In the present study, we performed a standard agglutination test (SAT) on 1348 suspected cases of brucellosis during the period of four years from April 2018 to March 2022. We noticed an increase in seropositivity from 2.6% in the year 2018-19 to 7.4% in the year 2021-22. We also noticed a spike in seropositivity in the years 2019-20 (12.5%). Our study shows the recent trend in seropositivity of the disease in Chandigarh and, hence, can be a meaningful addition to the existing serological diagnostic data related to brucellosis.
