Brandão, Paulo Eduardo; Cortez, Adriana; Ferreira, Fernando; Ferreira Neto, José Soares; Gregori, Fábio; Heinemann, Marcos BryanRotavirus is a worldwide etiologic agent of diarrhea, responsible for large economic losses. We studied the seroprevalence of antibodies to group A rotavirus in cattle in 67 smallholder farms from Uruará municipality, using counterimmunoelectroosmophoresis with the NCDV strain as a standard antigen. Prevalence of positive smallholder farms was 95.6-100%. Significant differences were seen between age groups when...
