Neospora caninum is a coccidian parasite of animals. It is a major pathogen for cattle and dogs and it occasionally causes clinical infections in horses, goats, sheep, and deer. Domestic dogs are the only known definitive hosts for N. caninum. It is one of the most efficiently transmitted parasite of cattle and up to 90% of cattle in some herds are infected. Transplacental transmission is considered the major route of transmission of N. caninum in cattle. Neospora caninum is a major cause of abortion in cattle in many countries. To elicit protective immunity against abortion in cows that already harbor a latent infection is a major problem. This paper reviews information on biology, diagnosis, epidemiology and control of neosporosis in animals.
犬新孢子虫是一种动物球虫寄生虫。它是牛和犬的主要病原体，偶尔也会引起马、山羊、绵羊和鹿的临床感染。家犬是已知的犬新孢子虫唯一终末宿主。它是牛传播效率最高的寄生虫之一，在一些牛群中，高达90%的牛受到感染。经胎盘传播被认为是犬新孢子虫在牛群中的主要传播途径。在许多国家，犬新孢子虫是牛流产的主要原因。对已经存在潜伏感染的母牛诱导保护性免疫以预防流产是一个主要问题。本文综述了动物新孢子虫病的生物学、诊断、流行病学和防控方面的信息。
