Evaluation of frequency of antibodies against Neospora caninum, Toxoplasma gondii and Brucella melitensis, risk factors and spatial distribution of infection in goat and sheep flocks from Argentina
(Elsevier, 2023-11)Neospora caninum, Toxoplasma gondii and Brucella melitensis are pathogens that cause abortion in small ruminants. Besides, B. melitensis and T. gondii are zoonotic pathogens. The aim of this study was to describe the ... -
Evaluation of frequency of antibodies against toxoplasma gondii, neospora caninum and Sarcocystis spp. and transmission routes in sheep from Humid Pampa, Argentina
(2018)The aim of this study was to describe the frequency of ovine specific antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii, Neospora caninum and Sarcocystis spp. and to estimate different transmission routes of these infections. One hundred ... -
First case report of Toxoplasma gondii-induced abortions and stillbirths in sheep in Argentina
(2018-05)The aim of this study is to report an episode of reproductive losses due to toxoplasmosis in a sheep flock in Argentina. A total of 15 abortions and 9 stillbirths were recorded in a flock of 190 Texel ewes. The affected ... -
