Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine the prevalence of paratuberculosis the dairy cattle of Ardahan province. 11 focuses randomly selected from the Ardahan center and its districts and a total of 400 cattle blood sera from 22 farms in these centers constituted the study material. In the study, commercial ELISA antibody test kit was used to investigate ‘’Mycobacterium avium subsp. Paratuberculosis’’ (MAP) antibodies in cattle blood serum samples. As a result of the analysis, 17 of 400 animals were positive for MAP and prevalence in Ardahan province and its vicinity was determined as 4.25% (17/400). Paratuberculosis was detected in 9 of 22 farms sampled. This result has been predicted that pTB is subclinical in dairy cattle in Ardahan region and may cause economic losses. Considering that this disease is zoonotic, it can be said that public health may also be affected. Therefore, it will be beneficial to carry out more studies on pTB.

Ardahan Yöresindeki Sığırlarda Paratüberküloz’un Seroprevalansı

Abstract

Bu çalışmada Ardahan yöresindeki süt sığırlarında paratüberküloz’un (pTB) prevalansının belirlenmesi amaçlandı. Ardahan merkez ve ilçelerinden rastgele seçilen 11 odak ve bu odaklardaki 22 işletmeden alınan toplam 400 sığır kan serumu çalışmanın materyalini oluşturdu. Çalışmada, sığır kan serum örneklerinde ‘’Mycobacterium avium subsp. Paratuberculosis’’ (MAP) antikorlarının araştırılması amacıyla ticari Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) antikor test kiti kullanıldı. Analiz sonucunda 400 hayvandan 17’sinde MAP yönünden pozitiflik belirlendi. Ardahan ili ve çevresindeki yaygınlık oranı %4,25 (17/400) olarak tespit edildi. Örnek alınan toplam 22 çiftliğin 9’unda paratüberküloz’un varlığı tespit edildi. Bu sonuçla, Ardahan yöresindeki süt sığırlarında pTB’un subklinik olarak bulunduğu ve ekonomik kayıplara yol açabileceği öngörülmüştür. Bu hastalığın zoonotik olduğu düşünüldüğünde halk sağlığının da etkilenebileceği söylenebilir. Bu nedenle pTB ile ilgili daha fazla çalışma yapılması faydalı olacaktır.
