Neospora caninum is a protozoan parasite of animals. Until 1988, it was misidentified as Toxoplasma gondii. Since its first recognition in dogs in 1984 and the description of the new genus and species Neospora caninum in 1988, neosporosis has emerged as a serious disease of cattle and dogs worldwide. Abortions and neonatal mortality are a major problem in livestock operations, and neosporosis i...

Bovine neosporosis is a parasitic disease of major concern in cattle industry worldwide. Although abortion is the more frequent clinical presentation, sporadic congenital clinical bovine neosporosis has been scarcely reported in newborn calves. Neospora caninum encephalomyelitis was diagnosed in two of 314 newborn calves submitted for necropsy and laboratory analysis between 2000 and 2014. The ...

Combined histological examination and avidin-biotin immunohistochemical staining of formalin-fixed brain and myocardium from aborted bovine foetuses presented to the Allerton Regional Veterinary Laboratory were utilized for the diagnosis of bovine neosporosis. Two out of 144 cases were diagnosed positive for neosporosis, indicating a low prevalence of infection and confirming Neospora caninum t...

The protozoan parasite Neospora caninum is a major cause of abortion in cattle. The diagnosis of neosporosis-associated mortality and abortion in cattle is difficult. In the present paper we review histologic, serologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular methods for dignosis of bovine neosporosis. Although not a routine method of diagnosis, methods to isolate viable N. caninum from bovine tiss...

Neosporosis, a parasitic infection caused by Neospora caninum (N. caninum), is one of the main contagious factors that cause reproductive disturbances in cattle and neuromuscular complaints dogs. This review was performed to determine prevalence dogs neosporosis Iran. Data were systematically gathered from January 2004 July 2020 Islamic Republic Iran following electronic databases: PubMed, Goog...

The aim of the present study was to determine seroprevlance Neospora caninum in goat by using different serological test .Fast and indirect ELISA comparative between two addition changes some biochemical parameters accompanied with neosporosis .study included examination of( 51)blood serum sample areas Mosul city from October 2021 March 2022 . Results showed that prevalence Neosporosis Fast (3....

An abortion storm associated with acute neosporosis involving 18 cattle was observed in a dairy farm in Taiwan. Aborted fetus age ranged from 3 to 8 months. Of the 38 cattle in that farm examined during the abortion storm, 52.6% (20/38), 13.2% (5/38) and 10.5% (4/38) contained both IgG and IgM, only IgG and only IgM antibodies to Neospora caninum, respectively. No antibody to N. caninum was det...

Bovine neosporosis has been reviewed in many studies throughout the world [6, 20, 33, 40-47, 53, 66, 67]. However up to date, only limited aetiological and epidemiological information was available regarding the status of cattle neosporosis in Turkey, and most of the studies were independently reported with different methodologies in different provinces. Consequently, the real prevalence of the...

Neosporosis is caused by the intracellular protozoan parasite Neospora caninum. This major disease-causing pathogen is responsible for inducing abortion in cattle, and these adverse events occur sporadically all over the world, including Japan. Currently, there are no vaccines on the market against infection with N. caninum. Because live and attenuated vaccines against N. caninum have had safet...
