Subject(s): Online resources: In: Zagazig Veterinary Journal 2005.v.33(2)Summary: Bovine leukemia Virus (BLV) is ,world wide pathogen infecting white cells and causing wide variety of multiple persistent diseased syndromes in dairy cattle. A total of 926 serum samples (180 bovine, 214 camels and 232 ovine) were randomly collected and used to determine the seroprevalence of infection with BLV. The 480 bovine samples represenfing 18 unvaccinated dairy herds of more than 20 month age by scheme of 15 to 44 (10% of herd capacity) while the oVine and camel's sera were collected individually and randomly during slaughtering. All the serum samples were tested for antibodies to BLV using indirect ELISA. The individual sample positive ratios for antibody by ELISA were ranged from 0.518 to 1.650by means of 0.532 to 1.089. The positive dairy herds were 14 herd of 18 by at least one positive sample have. A total of 82 bovine sera of 480 were positive by a percentage of 17%. The BLV seropositivity and percentages in camel and ovine sera were 15/214 (7%) and 18/232 (7.8%) respectively.
