Abstract

Neonatal calf diarrhea is one of the most serious problems of cattle industry all over the world. Although the aetiology is complex, it is possible to assess that viruses play a very important role. During an investigation to study the importance of Rotavirus in enteric problems in calves and piglets, it was possible to demonstrate the presence, for the first time in southern Chile, of Coronavirus-like particles in a faecal sample of a 15 day old calf by means of electron microscopy. The importance of this diagnosis and some clinical characteristics of the disease are briefly discussed. Finally, the need for more research on this complex subject is recognized.

摘要

新生犊牛腹泻是全球养牛业最严重的问题之一。尽管其病因复杂，但可以确定病毒起着非常重要的作用。在一项研究轮状病毒对犊牛和仔猪肠道问题重要性的调查中，通过电子显微镜首次在智利南部一头15日龄犊牛的粪便样本中发现了冠状病毒样颗粒。本文简要讨论了这一诊断的重要性以及该疾病的一些临床特征。最后，认识到需要对这个复杂的课题进行更多研究。
