ABSTRACT

 

Sakhaee E, Khalili M, Imani M., Seroprevalence of caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus in Iran, Onl J Vet Res., 15 (3): 256-260, 2011. A total of 138 serum samples from twelve goat herds were analyzed for arthritis-encephalitis virus. Serological prevalence was determined using an indirect ELISA test. Antibodies were detected in 15 sera (10.87 %), of which 6 were male (4.35 %), and 9 female (6.52 %). Nine of 12 herds (75%) were serologically positive. This information may assist with control and eradication measures.
