Abstract

Maedi-Visna (MV) is a viral disease that has no treatment and vaccination in sheep which causes chronic respiratory problems, nervous disorders, and yield losses. The aim of this study was to investigate the seroprevalence of MV infection in sheep in Kars province. A total of 200 sheep blood sera taken from 4 local areas (Ortaköy, Boğatepe, Halefoğlu, Borluk) in Kars center were the material of the study. A Commercial ELISA antibody test was used to investigate MV antibodies. At the end of the analysis, 32 of 200 (16%) animals were positive against Maedi-Visna spesific antibodies. At the end of this study, no statistically significant difference was found between the groups in terms of breed, location and gender. Only the difference between ages was determined. In conclusion, this study shows that MV disease occurs in sheep in Kars province.

Özet

Maedi-Visna (MV) enfeksiyonu koyunlarda kronik seyirli solunum problemlerine, sinirsel bozukluklara ve verim kayıplarına yol açan günümüzde tedavisi ve aşısı olmayan bir viral hastalıktır. Bu araştırmada Kars ilindeki koyunlarda MV enfeksiyonunun seroprevalansının araştırılması amaçlandı. Kars merkezdeki 4 odaktan (Ortaköy, Boğatepe, Halefoğlu, Borluk) alınan toplam 200 adet koyun kan serumu çalışmanın materyalini oluşturdu. Çalışmada MV antikorlarının araştırılması için ticari ELISA antikor testi kullanıldı. Analiz sonucunda 200 hayvanın 32’sinde, MV enfeksiyonuna karşı gelişen spesifik antikor yönünden pozitif olduğu belirlendi. Bu sonuç Kars ilindeki koyunlarda MV’nın oldukça yaygın ve subklinik seyir gösterdiğini ve önemli ekonomik kayıplara yol açabileceğini göstermektedir. Hastalığın progresif olması ve dünya genelinde yaygın olması açısıyla da ayrıca önem arz etmektedir. Bu nedenle bölgemizde ve ülke genelinde geniş tarama çalışmalarına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır. Elde edilen verilerin bilime katkı sağlayacağı kanaatindeyiz. Sonuç olarak bu çalışma MV hastalığının Kars bölgesindeki koyunlarda olabileceğini göstermektedir.
