RESUMO
Brucellosis is a disease of zoonotic character, of great global importance, caused by bacteria of thegenus Brucella that affects several animal species. In goats is caused by Brucella abortus and Brucellamellitensis, having as main implications abortion in females and epididymitis in males. The aim of this work wasresearch anti-Brucella abortus antibodies in the herd goats in the city of Bom Jesus, Piauí. Blood samples werecollected from 74 animals without definided breed. Obtaining the serum was accomplished at the ClinicalPathology Laboratory in Campus Professora Cinobelina Elvas - UFPI, the material was sent to thePhysiopathology of Animal reprocuction of Campus Ministro Petrônio Portela in Teresina- PI, where was heldthe serological diagnostic through Serum Agglutination test with Buffered Acid Antigen (AAT). The animalswere not reactive to the test, possibly because of some factors such as hygiene, lack of flooded areas and animalshave no contact with cattle.(AU)

Brucellosis is an infectious disease of the zoonotic character, caused by bacteria of Brucella genus whichaffects several species. In sheep is caused by Brucella ovis, Brucella melitensis and Brucella abortus, resulting ineconomic losses, causing reproductive disorders such as epididymitis, orchitis and miscarriages. The objective ofthis work was research of agglutinins anti-Brucella abortus in sheeps of Colégio Técnico de Bom Jesus-PI. It wascollected 55 blood samples from animals of different ages to obtain the serum by centrifugation, held in thelaboratory of clinical pathology, Campus Professora Cinobelina Elvas - UFPI, the material was sent to the AnimalReproduction Pathophysiology Laboratory, Campus Ministro Petrônio Portela - UFPI, where conductedserological diagnosis through serum agglutination test Antigen with Buffered Acidified (AAT). The animals werenegative to the test, possibly due to the absence of some risk factors for the occurrence of the disease.(AU)

ctBovine brucellosis, which is caused by Brucella abortus, is characterized for causing reproductivelosses. This study aimed to search for antibodies to Brucella abortus in cattle at the Alvorada do Gurguéia FarmSchool, in the state of Piaui, Brazil. Blood samples were collected from sixty five animals either male or femaleand from various ages. After serum was obtained by centrifugation of samples, it was sent to the Laboratory ofPhisiopathology of Animal Reproduction, located at the Campus Ministro Petrônio Portela, in Teresina PI.There, it was conducted the serological diagnosis through the agglutination test by using the buffered acidifiedplate antigen (BAPA). All samples were found nonreactive to the test, which was possibly caused by the absenceof some factors that would favor the occurrence of brucellosis in the farm area. Thus, the results show thatbovine brucellosis is not present in the cattle of the studied area.(AU)

This study aimed to search for anti-leptospira agglutinins in cattle from the Alvorada do GurguéiaFarm School, in the state of Piaui. Blood samples were collected from sixty-five bovines from various ages andboth sexes. The sorum was obtained by centrifugation of samples and sent to the Laboratory of Phisiopathologyof Animal Reproduction, located at the Campus Ministro Petrônio Portela, in Teresina PI, where theserological diagnosis was conducted through the microscopic agglutination test by using a colletion of serovars.None of the samples were found reactive to any of the serovars used, what shows that bovine leptospirosis is not present at the area studied.(AU)

Leptospirosis is a zoonotic disease which is a major public health problem, particularly in tropical and subtropical countries. This study aimed to investigate the presence of agglutinins anti-Leptospira dogs in the city of Bom Jesus, PI, using the agglutination test Microscopic Technique (SAM). Of the 106 samples, 20 (18.84%) were reactive. Of the 21 evaluated the following serovars were detected: Pyrogenes (43.47%), Canícola (39.13%), Icterohaemorrhagiae (8.69%) and Autumnalis (8.69%). It was concluded that leptospirosis is present in dogs in the city of Bom Jesus, PI, and the serovar most frequent was the Pyrogenes.
