dc.descriptionBangladesh is an agro-based country and about eighty percent of its people live in villages and most of the villagers are poor. Poultry may play a very important role for income generation and poverty reduction particularly for the distressed women and youths in the country as a means of self-employment. Poultry rearing is considered superior to the other sector in agriculture because of an almost assured and quick return in a relatively short period of time. There has been a tremendous development of this sector in recent years. Almost each and every village home of Bangladesh holds 6 to 7 chickens and accordingly there is approximately a 140 millions of chickens scattered in the country (Rahman, 2003). The advancement of poultry industry is being hampered by various fatal infectious and non-infectious disease problems, which cause 30% mortality of chickens that has been estimated to cost about Tk. 8,000 crores annually in Bangladesh (Ahmed and Hamid, 1991).en_US
dc.description.abstractThe present study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence of Salmonella infections in selected layer farm. This study covered cultural prevalence with isolation and identification of the causal agent of Salmonellosis in layer farms of Rangpur district during January-June 2011. The overall seroprevalence of Salmonella by Serum Plate Agglutination test was 40.41% .In flock no. 1, the prevalence of Salmonella infection was 40.32% at first sampling but it increased to 44.23% at second sampling (2 months later first sampling). The prevalence of Salmonella infection also increased from first sampling to second sampling from 37.40% to 45.45% in flock no. 2, 36.53% to 46.66% in flock no. 3, 38.18% to 43.33% in flock no. 4 and 32.72% to 39.34% in flock no. 5. A total 498 isolates originating from various tissues and environmental samples were characterized, among them 60% were Salmonella pullorum, 20% were Salmonella gallinarum and 20% were Paratyphoid group of Salmonellae. Seasonal prevalence of Salmonellosis was higher in summer (26.89% ) than the winter season( 20.25%). From the antibiogram study it was revealed that all of the isolates were sensitive to gentamicin (100%), ciprofloxacin (100%), followed by norfloxacin (90%), tetracycline (60%), streptomycin (30%) and amoxycillin (30%) penicillin G and apicillin are resistance.en_US
