Iranians of whom 52 were females and 109 were males. The median age was 35, the youngest being 18 and the oldest 66 years of age. They represented individuals from all the Iranian regions who live in Tehran, the capital. For the factor V Leiden mutation 9 heterozygotes were found (frequency of 5.5%), with an allele frequency of 2.7% and for the G20210A mutation 5 heterozygotes were found (frequ...

Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) is a pathogen responsible for respiratory and locomotor disorders and causes major economic losses in poultry industry. Early and accurate diagnosis of MS infection plays a major role in control of the infection.
