Meditory | Vol. 1, No. 2, Desember 2013 108 Meditory Original Article The Journal of Medical Laboratory Number 6 ISOLASI VIRUS AVIAN INFLUENZA SUBTIPE H5 PADA UNGGAS dI WILAYAH SURABAYA PERIODE TAHUN 2011-2012 Luh Ade Wilan Krisna., Masaoki Yamaoka., Aldise Mareta Nastri., Emmanuel Djoko Poetranto., Laksmi Wulandari., Resti Yudhawati., Landia Setiawati., Retno Asih Setyoningrum. Abstract Background the H5N1 subtype of avian influenza viruses have recently become an important zoonotic pathogen. Since 2003, H5N1 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) has been endemic in poultry found in Southeast Asia (Soda, 2008). Among the Southeast Asian countries, Indonesia is the most affected by 1 H5N1 HPAI, with the virus being found in 31 of its 33 provinces. Yet, little is known about the diversity of H5N1 HPAI viruses circulating in backyard farms, where chickens and ducks often intermingle. Objective here, we report on H5N1 HPAI viral strains isolated from domestic poultry (backyard chickens and ducks) in west Surabaya, East Java, Indonesia during 2011-2012. Methods we obtained a total of 30 cloacal swabs. These samples were inoculated into 11-day-old embryonated chicken eggs, incubated at 37°C for two days, and followed by harvesting of allantoic fluid. Eleven samples were positive for hemagglutinin (HA). We obtained two positive samples for the H5 subtype by RT-PCR using a H5-specific primer pair. HA and neuraminidase (NA) genes from the samples were subsequently sequenced and processed for phylogenetic analysis. Results molecular characterization of the H5N1 viruses confirmed that they harbored the cleavage site in HA genes characteristic of HPAI, although none had mutations that accelerate mammalian adaptation. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that H5N1 viruses belong to clade 2.3.1, which is prevalent in Indonesia. Gene homology analysis revealed a more than 90% match with the sequences of human isolates. Conclusions our findings suggest that virus surveillance studies are useful for understanding the genetic characteristics and evolution of endemic influenza viruses in Indonesia.
