The aim of this study was the evaluation of some reproductive rates of a beef cattle herd that were naturally infected by the bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1), bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) and Leptospira hardjo. In a herd with 1331 females, we randomly selected 208 animals that were distributed in three groups: i) 60 virgin heifers; ii) 60 first suckling cows; iii) 88 cows with two or more sucklings. All gro...
The RT-PCR technique was optimized and evaluated to detect the 5’ untranslated region of bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) from clinical samples that consisted of blood serum and whole blood artificially contaminated with the NADL strain of BVDV. To optimization of technique, the following conditions were evaluated: i) two pairs of primers, 103 / 372 (WEINSTOCK et al., 2001) and 324 / 326 (VILCEK et al., 1994)...
An indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using non-purified antigen was developed for serological diagnosis of the bovine herpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1) infection. Some blocking substances to prevent nonspecific reactions were evaluated in different concentrations and combinations. The best results were obtained using 5% skim milk powder as blocking solution and the serum/conjugated buffer added with 10% M...
