Summary: [Chlamydophila abortus infection seroprevalence in small ruminants exploited in the Upper Middle Gurguéia Microregion, State of Piaui, Brazil]. Abstract: Aiming estimate the Chlamydophila abortus seroprevalence in small ruminants at upper middle Gurguéia microregion, 352 sheep and 298 goats serum samples were collected. Complement Fixation test was performed for Chlamydophila sp. diagnosis (OIE, 2000). The reaction was conducted in microplates using test serum dilutions of 1:16 to 1:512. The prevalence in small ruminants was 12.61% (82/650). Therefore, the infectious agent Chlamydophila abortus is present in sheep and goat flocks in microregion of the High Middle Gurguéia in the state of Piauí.
