Serological Investigation for Bovine Viral Diarrhea and Bovine Herpesvirus Type-1 Viruses in Precolostral Calves and Their Dams

Abstract

In this study, BVDV and BHV1 infections were examined serologically in dams and their calves before colostrum intake to determine the status of the infections during pregnancy. For this purpose, total of 162 cows and their calves from 3 organised dairy herds and 7 family type small enterprises were sampled. Obtained 324 sera samples was tested using standard Virus Neutralisation test (VNT) to determine antibody presence and titration values. BVD seropositivity in dams was varied between 77.7% and 100% in organised herds, while lower proportion (57.1%) was detected in small farms. The rate of the seropositivity in neonatal precolostral calves were determined as 10% (3/30) and 14.6% (17/116) in herd 2 and 3, respectively. Highest value was detected in family type enterprises as 28.5% (2/7) for BVDV. In total, out of 162, 155 dams (95.6%) and out of same number of calves, 22 (13.5%) was found to be BVDV seropositive. BHV1 proportions was 70.9% in organised herds while 42.8% in small farms, in total 69.7% (113/162) in dams. Only one calf was found to be positive for BHV1 with 1/32 titer while its dam has 1/64. It was concluded that, precolostral antibody examination could be a usefull tool for detection of circulated viruses and incidence of the infections in herds due to express of immuncompetent period of the foetuses. Additionally, natural intra-uterine BVDV infection was determined by many reports but BHV1 infection was revealed for the first time with this study
