Determination of antibodies against Neospora caninum in water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) in the Peruvian Amazonia

Determination of antibodies against Neospora caninum in water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) in the Peruvian Amazonia

Neosporosis is an important parasitic disease that causes reproductive problems as abortion and neonatal mortality in diary cattle. The aim of the study was to determine the presence of antibodies against Neospora caninum in water buffaloes reared in five farms located in Jenaro Herrera district, Loreto, Peru in 2008. Blood samples were collected from 83 female dairy buffalo older than 2 years. Serum samples were tested by indirect ELISA and immunnefluorescent antibody test (IFAT). None of sera presented antibodies against N. caninum to the dilution 1:25 and 1:100 using indirect ELISA or to the dilution 1:100 by IFAT. The results suggest a low exposition of water buffaloes to N. caninum in the studied area.

La neosporosis es una parasitosis de importancia en el sector ganadero por ser causante de abortos y mortalidad neonatal. El objetivo del estudio fue determinar la presencia de anticuerpos contra Neospora caninum en búfalos de agua procedentes de cinco centros de crianza ubicados en el distrito Jenaro Herrera, departamento de Loreto, Perú, en el año 2008. Se evaluaron 83 muestras de suero, obtenidas de búfalas en edad productiva, criadas para la producción de leche. Las muestras se evaluaron por ELISA indirecto e inmunofluorescencia indirecta (IFI). No se halló evidencia de anticuerpos contra N. caninum a las diluciones 1:25 y 1:100 utilizando ELISA indirecto, así como a la dilución 1:100 con IFI. Los resultados sugieren una baja o nula exposición de los búfalos de agua al parásito en la zona estudiada.
