- Statement
- Households and subsequently livestock within the households were randomly selected and recruited into the study. Household data were collected using a short questionnaire that was administered to the household head or his/her representative. Animal characteristics (e.g. age, sex, species, breed, etc.) were obtained using a checklist at the time of blood sampling. These data was uploaded to a server at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) at the end of each day. The data were stored in an on-line database as Microsoft Excel files. Blood samples were collected from recruited animals through jugular venipuncture. Serum samples were prepared in the field and preserved in dry ice until they were transferred into liquid nitrogen tanks on arrival at the research laboratories at ILRI. These samples were screened for anti-(Rift Valley Fever) RVF virus immunoglobulin G using inhibition ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) immunoassay with the results being kept in a database designed in Microsoft Excel. The final dataset was created by merging field and laboratory data and the merged data were converted into a csv file for ingestion. Records from each of the files have not been transformed or altered in any way.
