A seroepidemiological study of bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) and bovine leukemia virus (BLV) infections was conducted in four different cattle herds in Turkey. A total of 300 blood samples were analyzed and 12.3% were found to be positive for anti-BIV p26 antibodies by Western blot analysis and 1.6% positive for anti-BLV gp51 antibodies by an immunodiffusion test. BIV infection was confirmed with the detection of BIV-provirus DNA using the nested polymerase chain reaction. This is the first evidence for the presence of BIV in cattle in Turkey.
在土耳其的四个不同牛群中开展了一项关于牛免疫缺陷病毒(BIV)和牛白血病病毒(BLV)感染的血清流行病学研究。共分析了300份血样,经蛋白质印迹分析发现12.3%的样本抗BIV p26抗体呈阳性,经免疫扩散试验发现1.6%的样本抗BLV gp51抗体呈阳性。通过巢式聚合酶链反应检测到BIV前病毒DNA,从而确认了BIV感染。这是土耳其牛群中存在BIV的首个证据。
