Özet
In this study, skin scrapings and hair samples were collected from 50 cattle with clinically suspected of dermatophytosis in the province of Kirikkale, Turkey. Moreover, blood samples were collected from 10 clinically healthy cattle and 37 cattle with clinically suspected of dermatophytosis to investigate the influence of dermatophytosis on some biochemical profiles, lipid peroxidation and antioxidant system. The collected samples were directly examined for fungal elements by direct microscopy. The isolation was made from clinically diagnosed about 50 cattles belonging to Dermatophytosis by 22 (44%). The distribution of isolates was Trichophyton verrucosum 19/50 (38%), Trichophyton mentagrophytes 3/50 (6%), respectively. The influence of dermatophytosis on plasma Malondialdehyde (MDA), total protein, albumin, uric acid levels, vitamin A and beta-carotene, vitamin C levels on serum Cu, Zn and Fe elements, in the erythrocyte Catalase (CAT) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) enzyme activity was investigated. There was no significant difference between the control and dermatophitic groups for total protein, albumin, vitamin A and C values. However, plasma MDA, erytrocyte CAT (p<0.05) levels and SOD (p<0.01) enzyme activity and plasma beta-carotene, uric acid and serum Zn, Cu (p<0.05), Fe (p<0.01) levels in dermatophitic cattles were statistically lower than those of control group. The result of the study revealed that cattle dermatophytosis is highly prevalent in the Central of Anatolia, Kirikkale province. In addition, the effects of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant system have been determined during the pathogenesis of disease.
