Abstract

A total of 1,098 serum samples were analyzed against Anaplasma phagocytophilum by immunofluorescent antibody (IFA) test. These serum samples belonged to four different populations distributed throughout two provinces of Galicia (Ourense and Pontevedra) located in northwestern Spain: bovine population (456 samples); ovine population (389 samples); caprine population (207 samples); and equine population (46 serum samples, all from Pontevedra). The seroprevalence against A. phagocytophilum within the bovine population was 3.07%. On the other hand, two of 389 (0.51%) sheep and one of 207 (0.48%) goats tested were seropositive, all of them showing low antibody titer. Seroprevalence within the equine population was 6.52% (3/46). Our results reveal the presence of antibodies against A. phagocytophilum in livestock from northwestern Spain, mainly in Pontevedra.

摘要

通过免疫荧光抗体（IFA）试验对总共1098份血清样本进行了嗜吞噬细胞无形体检测。这些血清样本来自分布于西班牙西北部加利西亚自治区两个省份（奥伦塞省和蓬特韦德拉省）的四个不同种群：牛群（456份样本）；羊群（389份样本）；山羊群（207份样本）；马群（46份血清样本，均来自蓬特韦德拉省）。牛群中嗜吞噬细胞无形体的血清阳性率为3.07%。另一方面，389只绵羊中有2只（0.51%）和207只山羊中有1只（0.48%）检测为血清阳性，它们的抗体滴度均较低。马群中的血清阳性率为6.52%（3/46）。我们的结果显示，西班牙西北部的家畜中存在抗嗜吞噬细胞无形体的抗体，主要集中在蓬特韦德拉省。
