Abstract

A sero-epidemiological survey of African horse sickness (AHS) virus in 261 animals which included 96 camels, 81 horses, 80 dogs and 4 donkeys was carried out in Nigeria. The animals had no history of vaccination against AHS. Sera were tested by the haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) test for the presence of antibody against AHS virus. Of these, 77 (95.1%) horse, 4 (100%) donkey, 10 (10.4%) camel and 28 (35%) dog sera samples tested were recorded as positive. The prevalence of antibody in samples taken from horses in different regions was similar. The prevalence of antibody to AHS virus detected in camels and dogs suggests that these animals are possible reservoirs of the virus. This may have an influence upon the epidemiology of the disease in Africa as a whole.

摘要

在尼日利亚对261只动物进行了非洲马瘟（AHS）病毒的血清流行病学调查，这些动物包括96峰骆驼、81匹马、80只狗和4头驴。这些动物没有接种过AHS疫苗的历史。通过血凝抑制（HI）试验检测血清中是否存在抗AHS病毒抗体。其中，检测的77份（95.1%）马血清样本、4份（100%）驴血清样本、10份（10.4%）骆驼血清样本和28份（35%）狗血清样本被记录为阳性。从不同地区采集的马样本中抗体流行率相似。在骆驼和狗中检测到的抗AHS病毒抗体流行率表明，这些动物可能是该病毒的储存宿主。这可能会对整个非洲该疾病的流行病学产生影响。
