Abstract

Klinik olarak "going light syndrom" semptomları gösteren 68 adet muhabbet
kuşu (Melopsittacus undulatus) ve kanaryalarda (Serinus canaria) %
45.58 oranında megabakteri izole edilmiştir. izole edilen sUşların aerobik ve
. anaerobik koşullarda endo ve Sabouraud's agarda kültivasyonu mümkün olmamakla
birlikte, kanlı agarda% 5 co2, %80 rutubet ve 37 °C'de 48 saat
içinde Hemolitik rough kolaniler oluşturdukları gözlenmiştir. izole edilen bu
bakterilerin subkültivasyonu mümkün olmamıştır. izolatlar katalaz ve oksidaz
testlerine pozitif reaksiyon göstermişlerdir. Türkiye'de daha önce İzolasyonu
bildirilmemiş olan megabakterilerin kanarya ve muhabbet kuşlannda
neden oldukları makroskopik ve histopatolojik bulgular detaylı olarak rapor
edilmiştir.

Megahacteriosis in Budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) and Canaries (Serinus canaria)

Abstract

Megabacteria were isolated from budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus)
and canaries (Serinus canaria) showing elinical symptorris of"going light
syndrome" in 45.58 % of 68 cases. Haemolytic rough colonies were observed
on blood agar within 48 hours of ineubatian at 37 oc with an atmesphere
of 5 % C02, 80 % humidity. Positive reactions were observed in catalas
and oxidase tests.
The isolation of megabacteria from budgerig~rs and canaries, which
has not been repoıted pniviously in Turkey ,.and the macroscopic and histopathologic
features caused by megabacteries have been descriebed in deail.
