| Özet |
| The water buffalo were usually grown for milk production and famous by-products, semi-hard cheese and especially cream clotting in Afyon. In this study, it was aimed to determine the risk of Q fever infection among the water buffalos, in Afyon. The collected 92 serum and 92 blood samples of female water buffalos were examined to investigate for the different stages of infection. A total of 92 serum samples was examined for the presence of Coxiella burnetii ( C. burnetii ) antibodies against phase I and phase II antigens by indirect ELISA. Eight (8.69 %) out of 92 serum samples were found to be antibody positive. Of the examined blood samples, none of them were found to harbor C. burnetii DNA. |
