DETECCIÓN DE ANTICUERPOS CONTRA PESTIVIRUS EN RUMIANTES DE UNA COMUNIDAD CAMPESINA DE LA PROVINCIA DE CANCHIS, CUSCO

The seroprevalence of bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV) and border disease virus (BDV) in serum samples of alpacas (n=200), bovine (n=38) and ovine (n=45) of a rural community of Cusco, Perú was carried out by virus-neutralization test. The 11.5 ± 4.4% (23/200) and 9.5 ± 4.1% (19/200) of alpacas had neutralizing antibodies against BVD and BD virus. The 73.7 ± 13.9% (28/38) and 76.3 ± 13.5% (29/38) of bovine and the 13.3 ± 9.9% (6/45) and 15.5 ± 10.6% (7/45) of ovine had antibodies to BVDV and BDV respectively. These results confirm the presence of pestiviral infection in ruminants of a mixed breeding system in a rural community.
