The aim of this study was to determine prevalence of Feline Coronavirus (FCoV) with concurrent Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) infections in that had no clinical signs living in different cities of Turkey. FCoV antibodies and FeLV antigens/antibodies were investigated in cats by using ELISA. The results showed that 37 (69.8%) of cats had FCoV antibodies and 2 (3.8%) of cats had FeLV antigens, 4 (7.5%) of cats had FeLV antibodies. Additionally, the FCoV antibodies were detected in all cats having FeLV antigen (n=2) and 75% of cats having FeLV antibody (n=4). The results of study showed the presence both of FCoV and FeLV of cats in association with different age, sex living conditions and environment in Turkey

Bu araştırmada, Türkiye’nin farklı illerinden örneklenen ve klinik bulgu göstermeyen 53 kedide (20 sokak, 33 ev kedisi) Feline Corona Virus (FCoV) ve Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) enfeksiyonlarının birlikte varlığının tespit edilmesi amaçlanmıştır. FCoV antikorları ve FeLV antikor/antijen tespiti ELISA testi yardımıyla yapılmıştır. Kedilerden 37 adedinde FCoV antikorlarının varlığı ve 2 adedinde (%3.8) FeLV antijeni, 4 adedinde (%7.5) FeLV antikorları saptanmıştır. Ayrıca FeLV antijen pozitif olan kedilerin (n=2) tamamı (%100) ve antikor pozitif olan kedilerin (n=4) %75'i FCoV antikorları yönünden pozitif olarak tespit edilmiştir. Bu çalışma, Türkiye’deki farklı yaş, cinsiyet ve sosyal çevredeki kedilerde FeLV ve FCoV enfeksiyonlarının beraber varlığına dair sonuçları içermektedir
