Prevalence and epidemiology of
Salmonella
enterica serovar Gallinarum from poultry in some parts of
Haryana, India,
Veterinary World 8(11):1300-1304.
Abstract
Aim: The present
study was investigated to ascertain the epidemiological status
of fowl typhoid (FT) in broilers in some parts of Haryana during
January 2011 to December 2013.
Materials and Methods:
To elucidate the epidemiological
status of FT in broiler chickens for the 3 years (2011-2013) and
to study the prevalence of various
Salmonella
serovars in poultry on the basis
of culture characteristics, biochemical features, serotyping,
and their antibiogram profile from some parts of Haryana
(India).
Results: A total of
309 outbreaks of FT were recorded in chickens during this
period. Overall percent morbidity, mortality, case-fatality rate
(CFR) in broiler chicks due to FT during this period was 9.45,
6.77, and 71.55. The yearly observations were divided into
quarters A (January-March), B (April-June), C (July-September)
and D (October-December). Maximum number of outbreaks - 106
(34.3%) was recorded in quarter D followed by quarters B - 84
(27.3%), C - 64 (20.7%), and A - 55 (17.7%).
Salmonella
isolates (253) were recovered
from disease outbreaks in broilers from different parts of
Haryana. Typical morphology and colony characters on MacConkeys
Lactose Agar and Brilliant Green agar, biochemical reactions,
serotyping along with antibiogram profiles were able to group
these isolates into 3 groups namely
Salmonella
Gallinarum (183),
Salmonella
Enteritidis (41) and
Salmonella
Typhimurium (29). The
antibiogram pattern of 183 isolates of
S.
Gallinarum revealed that most of
the isolates were sensitive to gentamicin (76%) followed by
amikacin (72%), kanamycin (71%).
Conclusion: FT is
prevalent in commercial broiler flocks in different parts of
Haryana and is responsible for considerably high morbidity and
mortality in affected flocks. Isolation of
S.
Gallinarum (9, 12:183) from FT
cases suggest it to be the primary pathogen, however, isolation
of S.
Typhimurium and
S.
Enteritidis from these cases is
a major concern. The detection of
S.
Enteritidis and S.
Typhimurium from FT cases assumes significance from public
health point of view.
