the main objective of this study was to estimate the seroprevalence of bovine herpes virus type 1 and parainfluenza type 3 in a non-vaccinated population cattle in the livestock region of qazvin province. totally 504 sera were randomly collected and tested from 8 industrial dairy farms in qazvin province during march 2010-march 2011. the result of one way analysis of variance was used for th...

Bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BoHV-1) causes respiratory and reproductive disorders in cattle. Recently, bovine herpesvirus type 5 (BoHV-5) and bovine herpesvirus type 4 (BoHV-4) have been identified to be associated with genital disease. In this study, the presence of the genome of BoHV-1, BoHV-4 and BoHV-5 in bovine semen of Argentinean and international origin was analyzed by PCR assays. The mo...

An evaluation of selected commonly used procedures for the recovery of endogenous viral contaminants in bovine serum was undertaken. Low speen centrifugation (25,000 x g) was found to be efficient for the recovery of bovine herpesvirus type 1 (BHV-1) and parainfluenza virus type 3(PI-3) in bovine serum. Decreased infectivity titers were obtained when parainfluenza virus type 3, and to a lesser ...

We aimed to determine the seroprevalence of infection with Neospora caninum, Leptospira, and bovine herpesvirus type 1 and risk factors associated with these infections in water buffaloes in Veracruz State, Mexico. Through a cross-sectional study, 144 water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) raised in 5 ranches of Veracruz were examined for anti-N. caninum and anti-bovine herpesvirus type 1 antibodies...
