Turkey is an important Mediterrenean country in terms of sea bass, sea bream and trout production. In this work, a total of 1050 fish samples (300 sea bass, 300 sea bream, 450 trout, respectively) taken randomly from 20 sea bass and sea bream (No:1-20), and 15 trout (No: 21-35) farms, were analysed using a combination of culture-based and molecular (Reverse Hybridisation) methods for Mycobacterium spp. The majority of samples were negative for mycobacteriosis. However, isolates that were positive by Reverse Hybridisation for M. marinum were isolated and identified from 60 fish (30 sea bass and 30 sea bream samples) from two cages of one farm in the Milas/Muğla province (Southeastern part of the Aegean Sea). This is the first M. marinum isolation from cultured sea bass and sea bream in Turkey.

A large number of genotypes have been revealed by spoligotyping method of M. bovis in the world. M. bovis SIT 482. BOV is one of these genotypes and it is also M. bovis genotype in which BCG vaccine is administered in humans. The BCG vaccine is obtained through multiple passages of this genotype. However, this genotype, like other genotypes, can cause serious infections in humans and animals. There are data on the isolation of M. bovis SIT 482 BOV from animal and human tuberculosis cases in the world. In our country, the isolation of this genotype has been reported only in humans and no data have been found in the animals. In this study, M. bovis SIT 482. BOV was isolated from the samples of six cattle with internal organ samples obtained from licensed slaughterhouses in Aksaray. While isolation is carried out with BACTEC MGIT 960 liquid media, spoligotyping was carried out according to the manufacturer's with kit (Isogen LifeScience, The Netherlands). This study aims to report M. bovis SIT 482 BOV from cattle in Turkey for the first time, to draw attention a very limited number reported in M. bovis cases in Turkey, highlight the importance of genotyping of tuberculosis factors and contribute to epidemiological studies. These and similar studies will contribute to the creation of genetic maps for eradication of M. bovis from cattle in our country. The study was also conducted to investigate whether M. bovis SIT 482. BOV isolated from cattle in Aksaray province is BCG strain or another strain giving the same pattern.

AktAÇ: An investigation of thiol/disulfide homeostasis and ischemia-modified albumin levels to assess the oxidative stress in dogs with canine distemper. Vet. arhiv 91, 39-49, 2021. ABStrACt This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic value of thiol/disulfide homeostasis (TDH) and ischemia-modified albumin (IMA) levels in evaluating oxidative stress in dogs with canine distemper. The study materials consisted of 24 crossbreed dogs: 18 dogs with canine distemper (CD group) and 6 healthy dogs as the control. Blood samples for analysis of antioxidant-oxidant parameters were taken from both groups. In addition to TDH parameters (native thiol [NT], total thiol [TT], and disulfide [Ds] levels and Ds/NT, Ds/TT, and NT/TT ratios), IMA and albumin (ALB) levels were also determined in the blood serum of the groups. The IMA levels of the CD group were significantly higher than the control group (P<0.05). Antioxidant parameters (NT, TT) and oxidant parameters (Ds, Ds/NT, and Ds/TT) both exhibited a significant positive correlation among themselves (P<0.01). The areas under the ROC curve of IMA, Ds/ NT, and Ds/TT were 0.78, 0.62, and 0.62 respectively. The high levels of IMA, Ds, Ds/NT, and Ds/TT and low levels of NT, TT, NT/TT and ALB in dogs with canine distemper can be used to assess the oxidative stress caused by the disease. Overall, the diagnostic performances of IMA, Ds/NT, and Ds/TT for detection of increased oxidative stress were similar, but IMA was superior.

There is lack of evidence showing the current status of vitamin d reserves in sarcoptic mange infested sheep. Therefore the aim of the present study was to analyze serum 25 hydroxy vitamin D3 (25 OH D3) concentration among sheep with scabies. Microscopical examination of deep skin scrapings to those of 28 sheep presenting alopecia, crusting, lichenification and scaling showed presence of sarcoptic mange. Serum 25 OH D3 levels among infested sheep showed a statisticaly significant difference in sheep with sarcoptic mange (group I 25.53±13.30 mg/dl) in contrast to group II (n=14) control sheep (84.70 ± 21.11 mg/dl). In conclusion vitamin d deficiency must be taken into consideration

The causes of infertility are various and complex. Economic losses are increasing in dairy cattle breeding due to infectious and non-infectious causes. The percentage of abortion due to infectious agents is not fully known, but infectious agents lie in about 90% of the cases whose etiology can be determined. Neospora caninum is considered to be one of the most important abortion factors of cattle. Although, this protozoa is always ignored. It causes abortion in cows. In this study, it was aimed to detect N. caninum from the blood serum obtained from 137 dairy cattle brought to Aksaray University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine between 2017-2019 and suffering from abortion and infertility problems. For serological diagnosis, ELISA (Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay) test was performed. As a result, N. caninum agent was detected in 37.22 % (51/137) of the samples that belong to cattle with abortion and infertility problems. It was concluded that economic loss due to infertility in dairy cattle and protozoa, which are one of the infection factors, should be given importance.
