Summary: | This research was conducted to know the seroprevalence of Avian
Influenza (AI) virus subtype H5 among poultry workers at Sidoarjo traditional
market. The samples were collected by drawing the blood from poultry workers of
Larangan traditional market in Sidoarjo via median cubity vein. The antibody titre
was measured by hemagglutination inhibition (HI) assay using H5 antigen from
duck A/Dk/Indonesia/AU-78/12 (H5N1) and three kinds of red blood cells, which
were horse, chicken and guinea pig. The serum samples were added by Receptor
Destroying Enzyme (RDE) with 3:1 ratio (v/v) for overnight and pretreated with
red blood cells 10% before hemagglutination inhibition assay was conducted.
Thirteen serum samples from poultry workers were obtained and none tested
positive for Avian Influenza subtype H5 virus. However, author recommend using
the confirmation test, sustaining ongoing surveillance and control efforts. |
