Antibody prevalence to bovine viral diarrhea virus in ruminant sera

Mishchenko V.A., Mishchenko A,V., Chernykh O.Yu.,Yakubenko E.V., Dumova V.V.

Summary

Results of the ruminant sera testing are indicative of high prevalence of antibodies to viral diarrhea virus in dairy cattle (46,8% by animals and 88,8% by herds) and in meat cattle (75% and 100%, respectively). Antibodies to viral diarrhea virus were detected in 24,5% of tested samples collected from all goat herds. In camel sera testing 32,7% of samples from 46,2% of herds were positive for viral diarrhea virus. In sera from deer, elks, roes, wapitis and dzerens – antibodies to viral diarrhea virus were detected in 18,8%, 25,4%, 23,1%, 60,0% and 17,6% of samples, respectively. During an foot-and-mouth disease outbreak in cattle a four-fold increase in antibody titers to viral diarrhea agent and infectious rhinotracheitis virus was established.

Key words: viral diarrhea virus, foot-and-mouth disease, cattle, camels, goats, deer, elks, roes, wapitis, dzerens, antibodies, sera.
