Abstract :
Brucellosis is a disease of animals as well as human and distributed throughout the world including India. Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease. So person involved with reå of animals are most commonly affected with ucellosis. Many times patients with ucellosis present with history of prolonged undiagnosed fever labelled as pyrexia of unknown origin (PUO). The objective of this study was to determine the seroprevalence of ucellosis among PUO cases in sephered & butchers admitted at Prathima Institute of Medical Sciences, Karimnagar. Serum samples from PUO cases sera were tested by Rose Bengal Plate Agglutination Test (RBPT), & Standard Tube Agglutination Test (STAT). Brucellosis might be missed if it is not considered in the differential diagnosis of PUO
