Irak-Kerkük Bölgesindeki Kuzularda Küçük Ruminant Vebası Virüsünün Serolojik Araştırılması

Abstract

Bu çalışma, Irak - Kerkük bölgesindeki farklı alanlardaki koyun sürülerinde Peste des Petits Ruminant (PPR) hastalığının yaygınlığını ELISA test tekniği kullanılarak hastalığın varlığın ortaya koymak amacıyla yapılmıştır. Klinik bulgulara göre PPR hastalığında şühpelinen kuzularda kan numunelerinde elde edilen serumlarda PPR test kiti ile ELISA yöntemi seropozitif olan numunelerin varlığı ortaya konuldu. Elde edilen test sonuçlarınra göre çalışmada kullanılan tüm kuzuların PPR virüsüne karşı antikor varlığının oranın %47'si pozitif tespit edildi. PPR antikor varlığı 2-6 aylık kuzularda %41.5 olarak saptandı. Hastalık Nisan ayında en yüksek düzeyde ve %56.50 oranında tespit edildi. Sonuç olarak, PPR'nin Kerkük- Irak bölgesinde endemik olarak görüldüğü ortaya konuldu. Sonuç olarak; Peste des Petits Ruminant (PPR) hastalığıyla mücadelede; koruycu aşı çalışmalarının yanı sıra dezenfeksiyon sistemleri, karantina, koyun yetiştiricilerin eğitimi ve küresel boyutta hastalıkta korunmada plan geliştirilmesi gerekli olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.

Serological Investigation of Peste Des Petits Ruminants in Lambs in Iraq-Kirkuk Region

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Peste des Petits Ruminant (PPR) in sheep herds in different areas in the Iraq - Kirkuk region by using the ELISA test technique. According to clinical findings, the presence of seropositive samples by PPR test kit and ELISA method was revealed in the sera obtained from blood samples of lambs suspected of PPR disease. According to the obtained the test results, 47% of the antibodies against the PPR virus of all lambs used in the study were positive. Presence of PPR antibody was detected as 41.5% in 2-6 month old lambs. The disease was detected at the highest level in April with a rate of 56.50%. As a result, it was revealed that PPR is endemic in the Kirkuk-Iraq region. In conclusion; In the fight against Peste des Petits Ruminant (PPR) disease; It was concluded that in addition to preventive vaccine studies, disinfection systems, quarantine, training of sheep breeders and development of a plan for global disease prevention are required.
