摘要
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is endemic in Kosova. The aim of our study was to detect the IgG and IgM antibodies to CCHF virus in cattle and sheep in endemic and non-endemic areas of Kosova. In total sera of 172 cattle and 95 sheep were tested by the Indirect Immunofluorescence Assay (IIA) for quantitative determination of antibodies to CCHF virus. Seven of 172 cattle sera (4.07%) and three of 95 sheep sera (3.16%) tested positive for IgG, but IgM were detected in the serum of only one sheep. The results of this study confirmed the fact that CCHF is endemic in four municipalities of Kosova and that there is a risk of the spread of viruses to other non-endemic regions through the movement of infected animals.
