Abstract

The survey aims to determine the presence of mange mites in stray dogs from Hatay province, as they are a cause of public health problem. In the present study, mange mites were investigated in 100 dogs that were brought to Hatay Metropolitan Municipality Unattended Animals Care and Rehabilitation Center between 15 September - 15 November 2016, by obtaining samples from six different areas in each dog. According to the examinations, none of the dogs had Otodectes cynotis, whereas Sarcoptes scabiei var. Canis was present in 2%, and Demodex canis was present in 21% of dogs. There was statistically significant correlation between clinical appearance and D. canis positivity (p<0.005). There was no significant association of D. canis positivity with age, sex or race (p>0.005). Nearly ¼ of dogs were infested with D.canis. The high rate of mite infestation may pose great risk for dog owners and people sharing the same environment.

Özet

Çalışmada; Hatay sokak köpeklerinde hem hayvanlar hem de insanlar için halk sağlığı problemi olan uyuz etkenlerinin varlığının araştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Hatay Büyükşehir Belediyesi Sahipsiz Hayvan Bakım ve Rehabilitasyon Merkezi’ne 15 Eylül / 15 Kasım 2016 tarihleri arasında girişi yapılan 100 köpekte her bir köpeğin altı farklı bölgesinden numune alınarak uyuz etkenleri araştırılmıştır. Yapılan incelemede Otodectes cynotis’e rastlanmazken, Sarcoptes scabiei var. Canis %2, Demodex canis %21 oranında pozitif bulunmuştur. Klinik görünüm ve D. canis pozitifliği arasındaki fark istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. (p<0.005). Demodex canis ile yaş, cinsiyet ve ırk arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı fark tespit edilmemiştir (p>0.005). Köpeklerin yaklaşık ¼’i D. canis ile enfekte bulunmuştur. Yüksek orandaki uyuz enfestasyonu aynı çevreyi paylaşan köpek sahipleri ve insanlar için risk teşkil edebilmektedir.
