Most of the calves, aged from 3 to 10 months, were vaccinated subcutaneously with the recommended dosage of 10<jats:sup>10<\/jats:sup>CFU of RB51 commercial vaccine, while only six calves received 10<jats:sup>9<\/jats:sup>CFU of the same vaccine. Serum samples for serologic testing, collected until 16 postinoculation weeks (PIW), were also tested by routine surveillance tests for brucellosis such as rose bengal plate and CF tests performed with<jats:italic>B. abortus<\/jats:italic>smooth strain 99 as control antigen. RB51 CF test results obtained by testing sera from cattle vaccinated in 1999 indicate that the sensitivity of the reaction is 97% at 2 to 3 PIW and 90% until 8 PIW and decreases to 65% at 12 PIW, the specificity remaining at 100%. Collectively, the results of this study confirm that serologic standard tests fail to detect antibodies to RB51 while the RB51-based CF test is able to monitor antibody responses to RB51 until 15 to 16 PIW with a specificity of 100%. In addition, unlike the RB51-based dot blot assay, which is the only test currently used to monitor antibody responses to RB51, the CF test also detected specific responses following vaccination with 10<jats:sup>9<\/jats:sup>CFU of RB51, although seroconversion was only 50% at 8 PIW. In conclusion, because of high specificity and sensitivity, the CF test described here can be used to efficaciously monitor serologic responses following RB51 vaccination in cattle and could also be employed to detect RB51 infection in humans exposed to this strain.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/cdli.8.2.385-387.2001","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2002,7,27]],"date-time":"2002-07-27T09:56:57Z","timestamp":1027763817000},"page":"385-387","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1128\/asmj-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Field Validation of the Use of RB51 as Antigen in a Complement Fixation Test To Identify Calves Vaccinated with<i>Brucella abortus<\/i>RB51"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"8","author":[{"given":"Rosanna","family":"Adone","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Istituto Superiore di Sanita\u0300, Rome, Italy,1 and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Franco","family":"Ciuchini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 1-->Istituto Superiore di Sanita\u0300, Rome, Italy,1 and"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steven","family":"Olsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"<!--label omitted: 2-->National Animal Disease Center, Agricultural Research Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, Ames, Iowa2"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"235","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_1_2_2","first-page":"149","article-title":"Uso della reazione di fissazione del complemento per il rilievo della risposta anticorpale in bovini vaccinati con il ceppo Brucella abortus RB51 in fase rugosa.","volume":"3","author":"Adone R.","year":"1999","unstructured":"Adone R.
