Bovine Abortion Caused by Leptospira spp.
...ing included bacterial culture of the abomasum, rtPCR for Neospora, Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus (BVDV) and Bovine Herpesvirus-1 (BHV-1) in a sample comprised of liver and spleen, and rtPCR for Leptospira spp. in a sample comprised of liver and kidney. The bacterial culture yielded a mixed bacterial growth, likely due to contamination. Based on rtPCR testing, Leptospira nucleic acid was detected in the sample. PCR results for other pathogens were n...
