A serological survey for infectious bursal disease virus antibodies among village chickens in Yobe State Nigeria
並列摘要
A serological survey to detect the presence and prevalence of antibodies against infectious bursal disease virus among village chickens was conducted in 17 villages of Yobe State, Nigeria. Five chickens were randomly selected from up to 10 households in each of the 17 sampled villages and bled from their wing vein. Serum was extracted from clotted blood and screened for antibodies to infectious bursal disease virus using Agar gel precipitation method. The study was able to detect antibodies to infectious bursal disease virus among village chickens in Yobe state at a prevalence of 63%. The results could serve as a base line data for future studies.
