GONZALEZ-BAUTISTA, Edgar Daniel et al. Determination of Antibodies against Bovine Viral Diarrhea (BVD) in Diry Cows in a Municipality of Boyacá (Colombia). Rev. Med. Vet. [online]. 2021, n.43, pp.117-126. Epub 21-Abr-2022. ISSN 0122-9354. https://doi.org/10.19052/mv.vol1.iss43.11.
Bovine viral diarrhea (BVD) is an infectious pathology generated by a pestivirus of worldwide distribution, which causes reproductive problems and economic losses. The objective of this study was to establish bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) positivity in cows from the municipality of Tuta (Boyacá, Colombia), and to analyze age and racial groups and reproductive and management variables as possible risk factors. A total of 374 blood samples were taken and the indirect ELISA test was performed using the Serelisa® BVD p80 Ab Mono Blocking kit; the data were processed with EpiInfo®. A seroprevalence of 41.7% was found. Crossbreds and cattle >4 years had the highest seroprevalence. Animals >4 years old (p= 0.0000001922) were statistically associated with the presence of the disease and were considered a risk factor for BVDV. Control and prevention programs should be established to hinder its dissemination in the area.
