Abstract

This study is a serological investigation of BHV-1 (Bovine herpes virus type 1) infection in indigenous bred sheep
from 8 small scale family operations in the Kars province of Turkey. For this purpose, serum and leukocyte samples were
collected from 220 healthy-looking sheep between the ages of 1-5. Serum samples were tested for antibodies against BHV-
1 using the virus neutralization technique (VNT). Out of 220 sera samples tested, 5 (2.27%) were detected as positive
against to BHV-1. The present study results reveal that seroprevalence of BHV-1 infection exists at low levels in indigenous
bred sheep in the Kars province of Turkey. This study is the first serological study to investigate of BHV-1 infection in sheep
in the Kars province of Turkey

Abstract

Bu çalışmada Kars ilinde 8 adet küçük ölçekli aile işletmelerinde yetiştirilen yerli ırk koyunlarda Bovine herpes virus
tip 1 (BHV-1) infeksiyonu serolojik olarak araştırıldı. Bu amaçla, sağlıklı görünümlü, 1-5 yaş aralığında değişen yaşlardaki 220
adet koyundan serum örnekleri toplandı. Serum örnekleri BHV-1 antikorları yönünden virus nötralizasyon tekniği (VNT) ile
test edildi. Test edilen 220 adet serum örneğinin 5 adedi (%2.27) BHV-1’e karşı pozitif olarak belirlendi. Araştırma verileri,
Kars ilindeki yerli ırk koyunlarda BHV-1 enfeksiyonu seroprevalansının düşük düzeyde olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. Bu
çalışma Kars ilindeki koyunlarda BHV-1 enfeksiyonunun araştırıldığı ilk serolojik çalışmadır.
