| Abstract |
An out break of lumpy skin disease (LSD) was recorded in a dairy and beef farm in Menoufia Province, Egypt, the epidemiological and clinical pattern of the outbreak was discussed . The morbidity rate recorded was 12.71% and mortality rate was 4.44%. According to severity of clinical signs, animals were classified into 3 groups, group1 with sever clinical disease was observed in 41.12% of cases, group 2 with mild disease was observed in 44.44% of cases and group 3 inapparent disease was observed in 14.44%. The description of the clinical signs and its relation to duration of fever is discussed.
Buffy coats and skin bioposies were collected for virus isolation, transmission Electron microscopy (EM) and isolation, transmission Electron microscopy (EM), and histopathological examination. LSD virus was successfully isolated in tissue culture. The virus was detected by EM which proved to be accurate and rapid method for diagnosis of the disease. Antibody titers were assessed using serum neutralization test where seroconversion was observed 10 days after onset of fever and the tires were higher in animals with sever disease than in mildly or inapparently diseased cases. The interpretations of failure of vaccination to protect animals against occurrence of the outbreak in the farm is discussed.
