Resumen
Descripción
Se examinaron 2.501 muestras de suero de ovinos
pertenecientes a las principales áreas de explotación
de ovinos en Colombia para estudiar la presencia de
anticuerpos contra fiebre Q, usando la microtécnica
de fijación del complemento.
En los ovinos criollos y los ovinos de razas seleccionadas
(2.099) ya adaptadas al país se encontró una
prevalencia ajustada entre 4.5% (106) y que fluctúa
entre 3,5 - 5,5 (P 0,05). En contraste para los 402
ovinos Blackface importados recientemente, 91 (23%)
dieron reacción positiva a la prueba. Se discute la importancia
de la enfermedad en salud pública y se sugiere
mantener la vigilancia epidemiológica para evitar
la entrada de reactores positivos.
A total of 2.501 sera were collected from the principal sheep rearing areas of Colombia to determine the prevalence of antibodies against Q-ferver using the micro complement fixation test. The indigenous and imported breed that had acclimated (2.099 to Colombia showed an adjusted prevalence between 3,5 - 5,5%(106) in contrast to the 402 recently imported Blackface ewes, 91(2317o) of which were positive to the test. The importance of the disease in public health is discussed and it is suggested that careful control should be maintained to avoid the importation of positive animals.
