(a) Tests on blood serum. (1) Standard card test (SCT). Card test results are used to classify swine as positive or negative. All swine positive to the SCT should be subjected to confirmatory testing. (2) Confirmatory test procedures. The Particle Concentration Fluorescence Immunoassay (PCFIA) will serve as the confirmatory test. Attached Graphic(3) Rivanol test. The results of the Rivanol test are to be evaluated by the designated brucellosis epidemiologist. Attached Graphic(b) Semen plasma test. This test is approved for use as a supplemental test of boars used for artificial insemination but must be employed with other serological tests. Final classification will be based on the most reactive test procedure. (c) Animals testing positive on any blood test performed will be considered as brucellosis exposed swine and an initial test of the herd of origin will be conducted within a specified time set by a state-federal veterinarian upon consultation with the herd owner unless waived by the designated brucellosis epidemiologist. (d) When deemed necessary to the establishment of a final herd diagnosis by the epidemiologist, the purchase of an individual animal with equivocal serological testing results is authorized in order to secure the tissues needed to arrive at a definitive herd diagnosis. The rate of indemnity shall not exceed the fair market value for an individual animal. The indemnity is subject to the availability of funds. The Commission will pay the owner the unreimbursed amount determined by deducting the salvage value and any applicable federal indemnity from the appraised value not to exceed $100.00 for each animal classified under this subsection. (e) Reclassification. Animals may be reclassified by the designated epidemiologist when consideration and evaluation of relevant bacteriologic, serologic, or epidemiological evidence justifies the reclassification.
