Resumo: A sero-epidemiological survey was conducted to determine the prevalence of anti-Leptospira spp. antibodies as well as to identify risk factors associated with infection in goats of the Seridó Oriental microregion, Rio Grande do Norte State, Northeastern Brazil. Serum samples from 366 adult goats from 12 herds were collected. For serological diagnosis of Leptospira spp. infection, the microscopic agglutination test (MAT) was carried out using 24 live Leptospira spp. serovars as antigens. Out of the 366 investigated goats, 53 were seropositive for at least one Leptospira spp. serovar, resulting in a seroprevalence of 14.5% (95% CI = 11.0% - 18.5%). The most prevalent serovar was the Autumnalis (73.6% of the positive reactions). There were no variables associated with leptospirosis occurrence (p >; 0.05).

Foram colhidas amostras de soro sanguíneo de 366 cabras em idade reprodutiva de 12 rebanhos. Para o diagnóstico sorológico da infecção por Leptospira spp., foi utilizada a Soroaglutinação Microscópica (SAM) com uma coleção de 24 sorovares de leptospiras vivas como antígenos. Dos 366 caprinos investigados, 53 foram soropositivos para pelo menos um sorovar de Leptospira spp., resultando em uma soroprevalência 14,5% (IC 95% = 11,0 - 18,5). O sorovar mais frequente foi o Autumnalis (73,6% das reações positivas). Não foram encontradas variáveis associadas à ocorrência de leptospirose (p >; 0,05).Universidade de São Paulo.
