Özet
In this study, it was aimed to investigate Salmonella Enteritidis antibodies by Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) in blood serum samples obtained from the goose enterprises grown in Kars Region during the goose slaughtering period. For this purpose, a total of 10 different flocks, 8 from Kars Province center and 2 from Arpalı Village, were included in the study. Totally, one year old 315 female and male domestic geese which had no vaccination history against S. Enteritidis and other Salmonella infections were sampled. Of the 315 goose blood serum samples examined, 16 (5.07%) were positive, 48 (15.23%) were suspicious and 251 (79.68%) were negative for S. Enteritidis antibodies. The highest S. Enteritidis antibody positivity was detected in the Flock 7 in Kars city center and in the Flock 10 in Arpalı Village with a rate as 16.66% and 12.5%, respectively. This positivity between the flocks was statistically significant (P<0.01). While the S. Enteritidis antibody positivity (8%) of Arpalı Village was found higher than the Kars Province central has (4.16%), there was no significant difference between these two locations (P>0.05). In this study conducted on the presence and prevalence of S. enteritidis in geese in Kars province, it was found that 5.07% antibody positivity was considered to be important in geese blood serum samples; in addition to this, similar screening tests for Salmonella infections, which have vertical transmission characteristic and carcass contamination are common, are thought to be beneficial in decreasing the prevalence of the disease.
