Abstract

Aim: The aim of this study was to describe the seroprevalence rate of Blue Tongue Virus in sheep flocks in Karaman.Materials and Methods: A total of 350 sheep blood serum samples were collected from 5 flocks (70 from each flocks) that were randomly selected. Samples were tested against to Blue Tongue Virus antibodies by a commercial competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA).Results: Prevalence of antibodies to Blue Tongue Virus in flocks was 32.85%, 28.57%, 25.71%, 37.14%, 41.42%, respectively. Out of 350 serum samples, 116 (33.14%) were positive for Blue Tongue Virus specific antibodies by cELISA. Conclusion: The climate conditions of Turkey might be suitable for the survival of Culicoides vectors of Blue Tongue Virus; hence sheep folks should be controlled constantly in term of BTV

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışma Karaman’da bulunan koyun işletmelerinde Blue Tongue Virus’a karşı seroprevalansın belirlenmesi amacı ile yapıldı.Gereç ve Yöntem: Beş farklı işletmeden rastgele seçilen (her birinden 70 adet) toplam 350 koyundan kan serum örnekleri toplandı. Örnekler Blue Tongue Virus’a karşı gelişen antikor varlığı yönünden ticari olarak temin edilen competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA) ile test edildi.Bulgular: İşletmelerde Blue Tongue Virus’a karşı gelişen antikor prevalansı sırası ile %32.85, %28.57, %25.71, %37.14 ve %41.42 olarak belirlendi. Toplam 350 serum örneğinin 116 (%33.14)’sı Blue Tongue Virus’a spesifik antikor varlığı yönünden cELISA ile pozitif tespit edildi. Öneri: Türkiye’nin iklim şartları Blue Tongue Virus’un vektör Culicoides türlerinin yaşamları için uygun olduğundan, koyunlar Blue Tongue Virus yönünden sürekli kontrol edilmelidir.
