Abstract
Aim: A serological survey for
the detection of Foot and Mouth Disease virus antibodies in trade
cattle was conducted to determine the seroprevalence of Foot and
Mouth Disease (FMD) in the Kwara state of Nigeria.
Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional study based on
convenient sampling for bovine blood was carried out in 5 cattle
markets (Offa, Bode Sadu, Ilesha baruba, Ilorin, Ajasse) across
five local government areas in Kwara State amongst cattle with
unknown history of FMD vaccination over a period of
August-September-October, 2011. The sera obtained were screened
using NS-Blocking ELISA kit (PRIOCHECKR).
Results: Out of the 450 cattle (268 cows and 182 bulls)
screened for FMD antibodies, sero-positivity was highest amongst
cows 62.13%. Percentage distribution of sero-positive reactors by
location showed Ilesha baruba, Ilorin and Offa had 27.14%, 23.80%
and 13.33% respectively, while seropositivity amongst bulls was
37.86%, highest occurrence in Offa 30.46% and least in Ilesha
baruba 14.84%. FMD carriers according to breeds showed 77.21%
white Fulani (Bunaji) was positive over the other breeds. The sex,
location and breed was significant by chi square p<0.05. FMD
seropositivity according to age indicated young cattle within 6
months-2years group had the highest occurrence 75.14% over the
adult group 24.85%.
Conclusion: The occurrence thus confirms FMD endemicity and
susceptibility of all sex, ages, and various breed of unvaccinated
trade cattle especially amongst white Fulani, young cows within
the local markets and those from neighboring West African
countries. Thus, circulating FMDV strains responsible for this
seropositivity should be established in order to design
appropriate control strategy to limit FMD effect.
