All farms | |
---|---|---|---|
Positive goats by IDvet screening ELISA | 119 | 121 | 240 |
Testing positive by IN3 screening ELISA | 54 (45.4%) | 19 (15.7%) | 73 (30.4%) |
Negative goats by IDvet screening ELISA | 1,635 | 3,488 | 5,123 |
Testing positive by IN3 screening ELISA | 109 (6.7%) | 162 (4.6%) | 271 (5.3%) |
Positive farms = farms with at least one positive goat in the IDvet screening ELISA. There is a statistically significant increase in the percentage of IDvet screening ELISA–positive goats confirmed positive (45.4% vs. 15.7%, p < 0.001) as well as of IDvet screening ELISA–negative goats reacting positively (6.7% vs. 4.6%, p = 0.003) by IN3 screening ELISA on multispecies than on monospecies farms.
