Abstract

Coxiella burnetii is the causative agent of Q fever which is a zoonosis occuring in both humans and animals worldwide. The purpose of this study was to investigate the seroprevalence of C. burnetii in Korean native goat in Gyeongnam province, Korea. A total of 1,365 goat blood samples from 273 farms in Gyeongnam province were collected between 2018 and 2019. Among them, 177 (13.0%) samples out of 71 (26.0%) farms were seropositive for C. burnetii by ELISA. Seroprevalence were 15.4% and 10.9% in 2018 and 2019, respectively. According to the region, seroprevalence in western, central, eastern, northern and southern areas of Gyeongnam province were 16.6%, 17.8%, 8.0%, 11.6% and 10.8%, respectively. Seroprevalence was increased with breeding scale (Head<10:7.0%, 10≤Head<50:8.7%, 50≤Head<100:13.6%, 100≤Head:28.8%). Seroprevalence according to the season showed highest in summer (18.9%) and lowest in winter (9.4%). These results indicated that C. burnetii infection is widespread among Korean native goats of Gyeongnam province in Korea and further study needs to prevent the circulation of other livestock with Korean native goat.
