Bovine herpesvirus type-1 (BHV-1) is an important pathogen of cattle causing a variety of clinical signs, including the upper respiratory tract infection, infectious bovine rhinotracheitis (IBR). Infectious bovine rhinotracheitis, a highly infectious disease of cattle and buffaloes, occurs throughout the world including India. The present study based on micro-serum neutralization test reports the sero-epidemiology of BHV-1 infection in cattle and buffaloes from different parts of India. Serum samples from cattle, bulls, buffalo bulls and yaks were screened for BHV-1 antibodies. A total of 1115 serum samples were screened, and a total of 437 (39.2%) serum samples were found positive and 678 (60.8%) serum samples were found negative. Overall 168 (38.0%) cattle, 17 (85.0%) buffalo, 212 (38.6%) bulls, 8 (13.5%) buffalo bulls and 32 (71.1%) yaks were found positive for BHV-1 antibodies. State wise, Assam had highest seropositivity of 71.1% for yaks, Madhya Pradesh had 68.9% for cattle and Meghalaya was negative for the presence of antibodies to BHV-1 in cattle.
牛疱疹病毒1型(BHV-1)是牛的一种重要病原体,可引发多种临床症状,包括上呼吸道感染、传染性牛鼻气管炎(IBR)。传染性牛鼻气管炎是牛和水牛的一种高度传染性疾病,在包括印度在内的世界各地均有发生。本研究基于微量血清中和试验报告了印度不同地区牛和水牛中BHV-1感染的血清流行病学情况。对牛、公牛、水牛公牛和牦牛的血清样本进行了BHV-1抗体筛查。共筛查了1115份血清样本,其中共有437份(39.2%)血清样本呈阳性,678份(60.8%)血清样本呈阴性。总体而言,168头(38.0%)牛、17头(85.0%)水牛、212头(38.6%)公牛、8头(13.5%)水牛公牛和32头(71.1%)牦牛的BHV-1抗体呈阳性。按邦划分,阿萨姆邦牦牛的血清阳性率最高,为71.1%;中央邦牛的血清阳性率为68.9%;梅加拉亚邦牛的BHV-1抗体呈阴性。
