Abstract

Objective: Detection of anti-Leptospira antibody in serum of CATTLE in Ahwaz.Design: Field and serological study.Animals: 645 CATTLE.Procedure: Blood samples were taken from jugular vein of 645 CATTLE (588 male, 57 female). Sera were stored at - 20°C until ready for use. They were tested, using the microscopic agglutination test (MAT) against 6 live antigens of leptospiral interogans serotypes. Antigens used were L.L gripotyphosa, L.L hardjo, L.L icterohemorrhagica, L.I. pomona, L.L ballum and L.I. canicola. Cultures were considered positive if 50ko3/4%1 or more of agglutination of leptospires in a dilution of test serum of 1:100 or greater were found. Statistical analysis: Chi- square test.Results: Out of the sera samples, 347 (53.79ko3/4%1) were positive for at least one leptospire with percentage distribution among the highest number of reactors 30.07ko3/4%1 was due to L.L gripotyphosa followed by in descending L.L Pomona (18.33ko%I), L.L canicola (15.53ko3/4%I), L.L hardjo (14.35ko3/41), L.I. icterohemorrhagica (11.55ko3/4%l) and L.L ballum (10.16ko3/4%I). Totally 35.16ko3/4%1 of srea showed evicience of mixed infection. In positive sera the antibody titers of 1:100 (44.42ko3/4%I), 1:200 (38.44ko3/4%I), 1:400 (14.54ko3/4%l: and 1: 800 (1.20ko3/4%l) were detected. The prevalence 01 reactors to leptospiral antigen did not differ with the sex of animal but had significant difference between industria and non- industrial farms.Conclusion: In contrast to other studies in Iran, thl Percentage of prevalence of leptospiral infection in Ahwaz was higher. It may probably due to climatic conditior because the weather in Ahwaz is commonly warmer that other cities of Iran that studied previously. The high prevalence of infection and dominant titer of 1:100 reveal that leptospiral infection in Ahwaz is endemic
