Molecular prevalence of , and and their associations with Mafriwal cattle's age groups.

Objective: This study was designed to determine the molecular prevalence of hemoparasites and their associations with Mafriwal cattle's age groups.

Materials And Methods: Blood samples were taken from the coccygeal veins of calves ( 92), yearlings ( 95), lactating ( 90), and dry ( 94) cows, which were subjected to microscopic and molecular identification of hemoparasites. The prevalence rate was determined based on the proportion of infected samples in the observed samples.

Development of TaqMan-based real-time RT-PCR assay based on N gene for the quantitative detection of feline morbillivirus.

Background: Morbilliviruses are categorized under the family of Paramyxoviridae and have been associated with severe diseases, such as Peste des petits ruminants, canine distemper and measles with evidence of high morbidity and/or could cause major economic loss in production of livestock animals, such as goats and sheep. Feline morbillivirus (FeMV) is one of the members of Morbilliviruses that has been speculated to cause chronic kidney disease in cats even though a definite relationship is still unclear. To date, FeMV has been detected in several continents, such as Asia (Japan, China, Thailand, Malaysia), Europe (Italy, German, Turkey), Africa (South Africa), and South and North America (Brazil, Unites States).
