Abstract

Serum samples taken from 250 sheep and 250 cattle in Bursa were investigated
for anti-bluetongue virus antibodies by Agar Gel Precipitation
Test (AGPT). Precipitating antibodies to Bluetongue Virus were determined
in ı 8 (3 .6%) of tested 500 sera. The infection ratios w ere fo und to be 6% for
sheep and 1.2% for cattle. It was determined that the infection ratio increased
with age.

Abstract

Bursa'da 250 koyun ve 250 sığırdan alınan serum örnekleri anti-mavi
dil virus antikorları yönünden Agar Jel Presipitasyon Testi (AGPT) ile incelendi.
Test edilen 500 serumun ı8 (%3.6)'inde mavi dil virüsüne karşı presipitan
antikorlar saptandı. infeksiyon oranları koyunlarda % 6 ve sığırlarda %
1 .2 olarak bulundu. infeksiyon oranının yaş ile birlikte arttığı saptandı.
