Antibiotic Combined Hyperimmune Serum Therapy for Peste des Petits Ruminants Infected Goats

Abstract: The peste des petits ruminants (PPR) has now been recognized as endemic viral disease associated with high morbidity and mortality rates in goats of Bangladesh. As there is no known effective drug against viral diseases, an attempt was made to evaluate the efficacy of antibiotic combined hyperimmune serum therapy (ACHST) against the deadly viral disease, PPR in goats. Naturally PPR infected 128 goats were randomly selected and used for this trial experiment in six different goat farms during the period from Ma… Show more

“…The sero-prevalence results of this study could be compared with earlier findings of Razzaque et al (2004) who reported sero-prevalence of PPR in 36% sheep, 49.17% goats and 19.05% cattle from the district of Mymensingh. These results indicate that a certain percentage of sheep (27%) and goats (25%) in the district of Mymensingh have natural positive level of antibody titre against PPR which might protect against natural PPR challenge, as the humoral antibodies have shown to have a protective value in PPR (Bidjeh et al, 1999, Islam et al, 2003. Maternally derived antibodies against PPR in young animals could be detected up to 6 months of age but fall below the protection threshold level at 3.5 and 4.5 months in lambs and kids, respectively.…”

“…Barrette et al, 1997, Das et al, 2007. Sero-prevalence(Razzaque et al, 2004), evaluation of C-ELISA(Sil et al, 2001), pathological investigation(Khan et al, 2005) and evaluation of antibiotic combined hyperimmune serum therapy(Islam et al, 2003) for PPR infected goats have been reported from Bangladesh. The sero-surveillance and immunization studies in sheep and goats against PPR with a commercial PPR-VAC ® would help to assess the feasibility to use vaccine to control PPR in small ruminants under field conditions.…”

“…Outbreaks of the disease have been reported to be associated with high morbidity and mortality in unprotected goats and the disease is now considered endemic in Bangladesh (Barrette et al, 1997;Islam et al, 2001;Das et al, 2007). Sero-prevalence (Razzaque et al, 2004), sero-surveillance and immunization studies (Banik et al, 2008), evaluation of C-ELISA (Sil et al, 2001), pathological investigation (Khan et al, 2005) and evaluation of antibiotic combined hyperimmune serum therapy (Islam et al, 2003) for PPR infected goats have been reported from Bangladesh. The present study was aimed to know the immune status in the field and immune response in experimental level in both vaccinated and non-vaccinated goats.…”

“…Moreover, the efficacy of drugs, in addition to their dose and prescribing pattern to treat animal diseases has not been ascertained yet in Bangladesh [9,10]. Earlier some studies have published drug prescribing pattern mostly concise with species specific or disease specific [2,11,12].…”
