Ethics approval and consent to participate
: The study protocol was approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the Aklilu Lemma Institute of Pathobiology (ALIPB), Addis Ababa University. The purpose of the study was explained to all goat owners who participated in the study and verbal consent was obtained from the goat owners before collecting samples from goats. The IRB approved the verbal consent from owners would be enough for blood sample collection from aborted goats since the procedure was taken as a routine clinical procedure to confirm Brucella diagnosis.
