Occurrence and Comparison of Hematological and Serum Biochemical Parameters of Peste Des Petits Ruminants’ Virus (PPRV) Infected and Non-Infected Breeds of Goats in Nigeria

Peste des Petits ruminant’s virus infection (PPRV) is of great economic importance in the small ruminant production industry and is recognized among the top ten diseases threatening small ruminant production and productivity globally and, most especially, in the tropics. This study investigates the...

description Peste des Petits ruminant’s virus infection (PPRV) is of great economic importance in the small ruminant production industry and is recognized among the top ten diseases threatening small ruminant production and productivity globally and, most especially, in the tropics. This study investigates the occur-rence of PPRV and establishes and compares hematobiochemical parameters of PPRV-infected and non-infected Nigerian goats to establish the extent of deviations of these parameters. A total of 58 goats, involving 32 healthy and 26 PPRV-infected goats manifesting clinical symptoms and confirmed with PPRV Antibody Rapid test kit, were analysed. Blood and serum samples were collected aseptically during June to August of 2024 at the Akinyele Livestock Market and the University of Ibadan Teaching and Research Farm, Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. Breeds and sex were morphologically identified, and age was determined using the rostral dentition technique. Hematobiochemical analyses were done by the adoption of standard procedures. Findings revealed that crossbred goats were the breed with the highest incidence (57.1 %), while the lowest incidence was observed in West African Dwarfs (30.0 %). Also, higher incidence was observed in bucks (58.3 %) compared to does (35.3 %). There were no significant differences (p < 0.05) observed in all hematological and biochemical parameters, but lymphocytes and neutrophils had p-values of 0.08, respectively, when the values were compared. There was lymphocytosis, neutrophilia, hypoproteinemia, hyperglobulinemia, hypoglycemia, generalized increased liver and kidney enzymes, and an increase in the concentration of sodium and potassium ions detected in PPRV-infected goats compared to non-infected goats.
