Serological investigation of bovine respiratory syncytial virus infection in cattle in the Denizli and Burdur district

Abstract

This study was carried out in order to detect presence serologically BRSV infection in cattle, located around Denizli and Burdur areas and to obtain information about its prevalence in these areas. In the study, between the dates October 2017 and March 2018, blood serum samples were taken from 271 cattle of different breed and gender, age than 6 months in Acıpayam, Bozkurt, Çameli, Pamukkale, Serinhisar and Tavas districts of Denizli where stockbreeding is densely practiced and in small family-owned farm found in Çavdır, Gölhisar, Karamanlı and Tefenni districts of Burdur. As a result of the analysis by indirect ELISA test of the collected serum samples, BRSV seropositivity was found 76,38%. BRSV antibody ratio according to provinces was detected as 68,38% in Denizli and 84,44% in Burdur. When we statistically compared the difference between the seropositivity rates detected in provinces where samples were collected, it was considered as fairly important (P<0.01). Consequently, we revealed to the conclusion that BRSV infection has been commonly seen in cattle breeded in small family-owned businesses located around Denizli and Burdur areas and serious precautions needed to be taken so as to control / struggle againist this infection.

Denizli ve Burdur yörelerindeki sığırlarda bovine respiratory syncytial virus enfeksiyonunun serolojik olarak araştırılması

Abstract

Bu çalışma, Denizli ve Burdur yörelerindeki sığırlarda Bovine Respiratory Syncytial Virus (BRSV ) enfeksiyonunun varlığının serolojik olarak saptanması ve bu yörelerdeki yaygınlığı hakkında bilgi edinilmesi amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırmada, Ekim 2017- Mart 2018 tarihleri arasında hayvancılığın yoğun olarak yapıldığı Denizli ilinin Acıpayam, Bozkurt, Çameli, Pamukkale, Serinhisar, Tavas ilçelerinde ve Burdur ilinin Çavdır, Gölhisar, Karamanlı, Tefenni ilçelerinde bulunan küçük aile işletmelerinde yetiştiriciliği yapılan 6 ay yaştan büyük farklı ırk ve cinsiyette toplam 271 adet sığırdan kan serumu örneği alınmıştır. Toplanan serum örneklerinin indirekt ELISA ile analizleri sonucunda BRSV seropozitifliği % 76,38 oranında bulunmuştur. İllere göre de BRSV antikor oranı da Denizli’de %68,38,  Burdur’da %84,44 olarak tespit edilmiştir. Numunelerin toplandığı illerde tespit edilen seropozitiflik oranları arasındaki farklılığın istatistiki açıdan karşılaştırıldığında önemli olduğu (P<0.01) belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak, Denizli ve Burdur yörelerinde küçük aile işletmelerinde yetiştirilen sığırlarda BRSV enfeksiyonunun yaygın olarak bulunduğu ve bu enfeksiyonun kontrolü/mücadelesi amacıyla ciddi önlemlerin alınması gerektiği kanaatine varılmıştır.
