Abstract:

Three different poultry products, Hubbard Broiler, Turkey and backyard sold within Erbil local markets have been tested for viral infection against highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) and Newcastle disease (ND). An assay test device, Quacking AI virus antigen rapid test -based on sandwich lateral flow immune-chromatophic sensitive assay- was applied to detect the AI virus via visible T-band. The result indicated negative viral infection in all three poultry products consumed in there different parts of Erbil province: Darato, Tairawa, Qushtapa and Al-Shurta Quarter. It is concluded that the above procedure is reliable for routine survey against these diseases while further poultry products are recommended for general health check up for the safety of public consumption.
