Abstract
Aim:
An epidemiological study of canine parvovirus infection in
dogs in and around Bhubaneswar, Odisha was conducted between
December 2012 to March 2013 and prevalence rate was studied on the
basis of age, breed, and sex.
Materials and Methods: A total of 71 fecal samples from
suspected diarrheic dogs were collected in sterile phosphate
buffer saline (10% W/V) and examined by polymerase chain reaction
(PCR) for detection of canine parvo virus infection, followed by
epidemiological study in relation to age, breed, and sex.
Results: Of 71 samples analyzed, 29 (40.85%) were found to be
positive by PCR assay. The infection was higher in Deshi/local
breeds (34.48%), followed by German shepherd (17.24%), equal
incidences in mixed and Labrador retriever (10.34%), Rottweiler
and German spitz showed 6.90% each and finally lower incidences in
four breeds (3.45%) such as Dalmatians, Nea politan mastiff, Pug
and Great Dane. Age-wise prevalence study revealed the infection
being more in the age group of 3-6 months (41.37%), followed by
equal incidences of 27.59% in 1-3 months and 6-12 months age
group, and a low incidence in age groups above 12 months (3.45%).
The incidence was predominantly higher in males (86.21%) than
females (13.79%).
Conclusions: The epidemiological analysis revealed that the
breed wise prevalence was found to be more in Deshi breeds as
compared to others, age groups below 6 months were found to be
more prone to parvovirus infection and males were mostly infected.
Keywords: canine parvovirus, epidemiology, polymerase chain
reaction.
