Abstract

In this study, determination of seroprevalence of Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever virus (CCHFV) infection was aimed in cattle and sheep in Elazig, Samsun, Sivas, Tokat and Yozgat provinces. In the study, a total of 100 cattle and 100 sheep, 20 cattle and 20 sheep from each province were used. The blood samples were obtained from a jugular vein of animals into the tubes without anticoagulant for serologic analysis. Serologic analysis was conducted by Capture IgG ELISA method. Seventeen seropositive and 83 seronegative out of 100 cattle; 37 seropositive and 63 seronegative out of 100 sheep were detected in the analysis of ELISA test. As a conclusion, in the present study, positive antibody titers against of CCHFV infection were determined in 17% of the cattle and in 37% of the sheep. It was concluded that detailed researches are required on the roles of the epidemiology and transmission of CCHFV infection in our country in farm animals.

Özet

Bu araştırmada, Elazığ, Samsun, Sivas, Tokat ve Yozgat illerindeki sığır ve koyunlarda Kırım Kongo Kanamalı Ateş virüs (KKKAV) enfeksiyonunun seroprevalansının belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Çalışmada her ilden 20 sığır ve 20 koyun olmak üzere toplam 100 sığır ve 100 koyun kullanıldı. Serolojik analizler için hayvanların vena jugularislerinden antikoagulantsız tüplere kan örnekleri alındı. Serolojik analizler Capture IgG ELISA yöntemiyle yapıldı. ELISA analizleri sonucunda, 100 sığırın 17’sinin seropozitif (%17), 83’ünün seronegatif (%83), koyunlarda ise, 100 koyunun 37’sinin seropozitif (%37), 63’ünün seronegatif (%63) olduğu tespit edildi. Sonuç olarak; bu çalışmada KKKAV enfeksiyonuna karşı sığırlarda %17, koyunlarda ise %37 oranında antikor pozitifliği belirlendi. Ülkemizde evcil çiftlik hayvanlarının KKKAV enfeksiyonunun epidemiyolojisinde ve bulaşmasındaki rolleri ile ilgili kapsamlı çalışmaların gerektiği kanısına varıldı.
