Description
Summary:Serologic prevalence of caprine arthritis encephalitis (CAE) virus was determined in 15 villages of Cundinamarca, Colombia by agar gel immunoditfusion test using Gp 135 reference protein. A sample of 200 serums was obtained according to a binomial design from 21 goat populations in the selected area. Positive reactors were detected in 26.5% of the tested animals and 14 out of 21 goat populations had positive animals. A significative association (P ≤ 0.01) was founded between infection, male sex, pure breed and breed crosses. No association was detected between prevalence and age. Prevention and control mesures against the disease are suggested.
