    Diagnóstico de la situación del virus de la diarrea viral bovina (VDVB), virus herpes bovino tipo1 (HVB-1), virus de la leucosis viral bovina (VLVB) y Neospora caninum en una finca lechera ubicada en Zarcero con problemas reproductivos (abortos)

    The main need for aid in the dairy sector must be targeted at small and medium-sized producers, who are the most affected in economic terms. From this point of view, the School of Veterinary Medicine of the National University has within its mission and vision to help improve the productivity and animal health of the country, through programs aimed at low income producers. This research was conducted in a dairy cattle farm in Zarcero, Alajuela, Costa Rica, owned by Mr. José Luis Argüello Cubillo. This farm had long presented problems of abortion and had the hypothesis from previous serological studies of the Dos Pinos on the farm, and was considered to be a possible cause of abortions. A study was carried out to try to associate abortions with the presence of some of the etiological agents (HVB-1, VDVB, VLVB and N. caninum) commonly associated with abortions in dairy cattle. Serological tests (ELISA) were carried out to determine the incidence of HVB-1, VDVB, VLVB and N. caninum in the dairy herd and an incidence of 48.6% to VLVB; 19.5% to VDVB and 12.2% to N. caninum was determined. Furthermore, a statistical analysis of the Reasons for Incidence (RI) was carried out as a measure of association and an RI= 0.88 (IC95%: 0.1-2.48) was determined for BVDV, an RI=0. 69 (IC95%: 0.19-2.48)for BVDV and an RI= 1.2 (IC95%: 0.37-3.86) for N. caninum. Therefore, it is necessary to focus on the study of other causes of abortion and a sanitation plan was designed to produce better management, prevention and control of abortion problems.
