Abstract

We investigated the seroprevalence of antibodies against Erysipelothrix in wild animals in Japan. Serum samples were collected from 48 wild boar, 26 Yezo deer and 26 Japanese deer in Japan. Growth agglutination (GA) test was performed to estimate antibody titers. As a result, positive results were obtained from 32 (66.7%), 1 (3.6%) and 6 (23.1%) samples from wild boar, Yezo deer and Japanese deer, respectively. Our findings suggest that wild animals may be an important reservoir of Erysipelothrix.

日本野猪和鹿丹毒弧菌抗体的血清学监测。

我们调查了日本野生动物丹毒弧菌抗体的血清阳性率。在日本采集了48只野猪、26只野山鹿和26只日本鹿的血清样本。采用生长凝集(GA)试验估计抗体滴度。结果表明，野猪32份(66.7%)、野山鹿1份(3.6%)、日本鹿6份(23.1%)呈阳性。研究结果提示，野生动物可能是丹毒的重要宿主。
