Isolation, Histopathological and Molecular Detection of Yersinia Pseudotuberclosis Infection in Sheep in Turkey
Journal Title: Journal of Animal Science Advances - Year 2013, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
The aim of the present study was to detect causes of abortion in sheep and early neonatal death of lambs and treatment trial. Diagnososis of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis was made on the basis of bacteriological from the stomach contents, lung, liver, and peritoneal fluid and pathological findings. Additionally, in order to confirm the presence of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis nested PCR was performed. In treatment trials Amoxycillin were given1ml/10kg BW. This is the first case report of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis causing abortion in sheep in Turkey. As a result of this study it is suggested that Yersinia pseudotuberculosis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of causes of ovine abortion and early neonatal death of lambs in this country.
