Schmallenberg Virus (SBV)

Abstract

In November 2011, near the town of Schmallenberg in Germany, identified a novel Orthobunyavirus which caused fever, diarrhea and decreased milk production, isolated from plasma samples of affected animals. This novel species was named as Schmallenberg virus (SBV) after the place where the first positive samples were collected. Some members of Bunyaviridae family (CrimeanCongo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus, Rift Valley Fever Virus, Sin Nombre Virus and Sandfly Fever Naples Virus) are zoonotic that severely threating public health. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct detailed research on SBV. It is suggested that SBV which is derived from Shamonda and Sathuperi viruses is the first known outbreak caused by a Simbu serogroup member in Europe. In the review, it is aimed to give shortly information about a novel virus species as called SBV which is responsible for abortion cases in cattle, sheep and goats in Europe

Schmallenberg Virus (SBV)

Abstract

Kasım 2011‟de Almanya‟nın Schmallenberg kasabası yakınlarında ateĢli, ishal ve süt verimi azalan sığırlardan elde edilen plazma örneklerinde yeni bir Orthobunyavirus varlığı tespit edilmiĢtir. Bu yeni virus pozitif örneklerden izole edildikten sonra Schmallenberg Virus (SBV) olarak isimlendirilmiĢtir. Bunyaviridae ailesi üyelerinden olan bazı viruslar (Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus, Rift Valley Fever Virus, Sin Nombre Virus ve Sandfly Fever Naples Virus) zoonoz olup, halk sağlığını önemli derecede etkilemektedir. Bu yüzden, SBV‟nin üzerinde detaylı araĢtırmalar yapılmasına gereksinim duyulmaktadır. SBV‟unun, Avrupa‟da bir Simbu serogrup üyesinin neden olduğu bilinen ilk salgın olup, Shamonda ve Sathuperi viruslarından köken aldığı tahmin edilmektedir. Bu derlemede, Avrupa ülkelerinde sığır, koyun ve keçilerde abort vakalarından sorumlu olduğu düĢünülen bu yeni virus türünün neden olduğu SBV enfeksiyonu hakkında kısa bir bilgilendirme yapılması amaçlandı.
