TI  - Seroprevalence of Neospora Caninum and Toxoplasma Gondii in Honamlı Goats in Burdur Province
AB  - Neospora caninum and Toxoplasma gondii are intracellular protozoan parasites that cause economic losses in goats. Both parasites are similar in features and cause abortions in goats. For this reaon, in this study, it was aimed to determine the seroprevalence of N. caninum and T. gondii in Honamlı goats bred in Burdur province. The study material consisted of 273 Honamlı goats aged between 2-7 years in 11 different goat herds. While 69 of these goats were aborted in the 5th month of pregnancy, the remaining 189 were normal goats that gave birth to healthy kid. In the findings; N. caninum specific antibodies were determined in eight (2.9 %) blood serum taken from the goats included in the study.  In the blood serum of three goats (1.1 %), N. caninum suspectable antibody positivity was detected. Toxoplasma gondii specific antibodies were determined in seven (2.6 %) blood serum taken from the goats included in the study.  In the blood serum of three goats (1.1 %), T. gondii suspectable antibody positivity was detected. As a result, it was observed that N. caninum and T. gondii had low serprevalence levels in Honamlı goats bred in Burdur province.
