Serological survey of immunoglobulin G from infection in dairy goats in East Java, Indonesia.

Background And Aim: infection is a significant issue of veterinary public health because it is potentially transmitted through goat milk. Therefore, the use of control measures and routine monitoring of toxoplasmosis in dairy goats is necessary. Serological analysis using antibodies can detect infection.

DOES TRYPANOSOMA EVANSI HAVE THE MAXICIRCLE GENE, OR CAN TRYPANOSOMA EQUIPERDUM BE ISOLATED FROM BOVINES?

Identifying a trypanosome isolate is generally based on morphological observations and molecular identification of one of the genes, usually internal transcribed spacer 1 and 2 of ribosomal DNA (ITS1 rDNA, ITS2 rDNA), a variant surface glycoprotein of Rode Trypanozoon antigen type 1.2 (VSG RoTat 1.2), or expression site-associated genes (ESAG).

Seroprevalence of Seven Reproductive Diseases in Beef and Dairy Cows from Three Provinces in Indonesia.

Bovine reproductive diseases are endemic in Indonesia, but comprehensive information about their infectious causes is not available. Therefore, our aim for this study was to detect several infectious agents that cause reproductive diseases in Indonesian beef and dairy cows. A total of 152 cow serum samples collected by Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Brawijaya University and Veterinary Disease Investigation Centre as a part of the mandatory and regularly surveillance system from three provinces during 2019-2020 were used.
