Abstract |
This study was planed to follow up the epizootiological situation of FMD& RVF Shark El-awinat and El-Wady El-Gedeed provineces. Seven hundreds serum samples were collected from cattle, sheep and goats. All animals in this area were not vaccinated against FMD& RVF. Serum samples were tested using serum neutralization test (SNT) and Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Identification of FMD was performed by CHEKIT- FMV-3 ABC Kits for detecting non- structural proteins. The SNT results for FMD& RVF revealed that the animals susceptibility were ranged between 98%: 96.6%, 98.7%, 97.4%&99%- 98% for cattle, sheep and goats respectively. While ELISA results revealed that the animals susceptibility were ranged between 96.6%: 96%, 98%: 96.6%, 98% for cattle, sheep and goats to FMD &RVF in Shark El-awinat respectively. The susceptibility of all animals to FMD&RVF were 100% in El- wady El-Gedeed as detected by ELISA. The probability of natural infection was Zero percent in all animals. In conclusion it was considered that El-Wady El-Gedeed is free from FMD & RVF diseases. And its recommended to use their animals in quality control of FMD and RVF vaccines
