Prevalence of Antibodies to Porcine Parvovirus in Wild Boars (Sus scrofa) in Croatia
Serologic evidence of exposure to porcine parvovirus (PPV) in the wild boar (Sus scrofa)in Croatia was investigated. Serum samples from 219 wild boars captured during 2003 from 12 different locations in the Republic of Croatia were tested by using a commercial enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) and a hemagglutination inhibition (HI) test. Antibodies to PPV were detected in 91 (41.6%) of tested samples and positive results were detected in wild boar from all sample locations. Adults had a significantly higher prevalence (70%) than juveniles (31%). Our results indicate that wild boar population throughout the Republic of Croatia are exposed to PPV.
