Results of IDEXX screening ELISA performed on positive goats.

Positive goats Multispecies farms
(sheep + goats)
Monospecies farms
(only goats)
All farms
IDvet screening ELISA total 109 114 223*
Positive by IDEXX screening ELISA 41 (37.6%) 9 (7.9%) 50 (22.4%)
IN3 screening ELISA total 152 179 331
Positive by IDEXX screening ELISA 49 (32.2%) 11 (6.1%) 60 (18.1%)

For both IDvet (37.6% vs. 7.9%) and IN3 (32.2% vs. 6.1%) screening ELISAs, positive goats were confirmed in IDEXX ELISA statistically (p < 0.001) more often on multispecies than on monospecies farms.

*

Goats positive by IDvet screening ELISA: all = 240; tested by IDEXX screening ELISA = 223.

Goats positive by IN3 screening ELISA: all = 344; tested by IDEXX screening ELISA = 331.
