Abstract
A serological survey was carried out on bovines in Congo to assess the epidemiological importance of brucellosis, chlamydiosis and Q fever. Results show that prevalence are moderate (12.04 +/- 2.81 % for brucel losis, 10.00 +/- 3.00 % for chlamydiosis and 13.33 +/- 4.30 % for Q fe ver). The results are discussed with respect to the livestock producti on areas where the screening was implemented.
