Abstract
Aim:
To detect and identify the causative agent or agents of the
following clinical symptoms which were fever, lack of appetite,
salivation, vesiculation, erosions of the buccal mucosa, nose, and
feet. The signs vary from mild to severe. The mortality rate of
the disease is high. The morbidity rate reaches up to 100%. Sheep
also show bloody diarrhea and rapid respiration. Sheep flock
resident in El-Kharje Governorate.
Materials and Methods:
A
total of 50 serum samples and 50 buffy coat samples were collected
from Marino sheep flock suffered from high mortalities, fever,
lameness, diarrhea, stomatitis, and respiratory distress.
PrioCHECK® foot and mouth disease virus (FMDV)
nonstructural (NS) (marketable enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay
[ELISA] kit) was used for revealing of the NS antibodies and
liquid phase blocking enzyme immunoassay (LPBE) for identifying
the FMD serotype and examined by competitive ELISA (cELISA) for
detection of peste des petits ruminants (PPR) antibodies. The
buffy coat samples were examined by immunocapture ELISA (Ic ELISA)
for detection of PPR antigen.
Results:
Using PrioCHECK® FMDV NS: Commercial ELISA kit: 38/50
(76%) of the serum samples were positive for the presence of FMD
NS viral proteins. In addition, using LPBE the positive samples
were identified as FMD serotype O. Examination of the serum sample
by cELISA for detection of PPR antibodies gave positive results in
32/50 (64%). While the Ic ELISA identified 32 (64%) positive
reactors for PPR antigen.
Conclusion:
This study reflected high susceptibility of the imported sheep
flocks to the infection with FMD and PPR viruses, which are
endemic in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Hence, the imported
flocks that prepared for slaughter must be vaccinated with the
used vaccine in KSA in the quarantine for the control of FMD
especially when importation occurs from counters that are free
from these diseases.
Keywords:
