Book Description
The purpose of this study is to test for the presence of bovine leukemia virus (BLV) in both pasteurized and unpasteurized dairy milk samples. During the course of the thesis, steps will be taken to identify the prevalence of this virus in dairy milk. Studies have shown that BLV DNA has been found in humans, with particles/DNA (depending on what found) in the secretory mammary epithelium within secretory mammary epithelium. However, the correlation of viral particle presence to BLV infection and prevalence in dairy milk is not completely understood. The overall goal of this thesis is to determine mode of BLV transmission through bovine dairy consumption.

Enzootic Bovine Leukosis and Bovine Leukemia Virus
Author: A. Burny
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9780898388466
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
This volume on enzootic bovine leukosis (EBL) and bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the second in our series "Developments in Veterinary Virology". Each book in this series is devoted to a major virus disease of agricultural significance. The chapters in each volume are planned to supply information on a range of subjects from pathogenesis of the causative virus to vaccination, eradication, and rules regarding disease control. The present volume on enzootic bovine leukosis and bovine leukemia virus updates the reader on the disease and its causative agent and includes the nucleotide sequence of the BLV genome as well as data on its integration into the DNA of the tumor cell. Insights into diagnosis, veterinary legislation, and the economic aspects of EBL are also provided. Intense research conducted on EBL and BLV during the course of a decade is presented in a most concise and in-depth manner, so as to provide the reader with a comprehensive overview of this economically important disease of cattle. I wish to thank the editors, A. Burny and M. Mammerickx, as well as all the authors, for making this excellent book available at a stage when the knowledge on bovine leukemia virus will also contribute to our understanding of the virus causing human AIDS.

Diseases of Cattle in the Tropics
Author: I. Ristic
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9789024724956
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 688
Book Description
Most of the future increase in livestock production is expected to occur in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Cattle are the most numerous of the ruminant species in the tropics and provide the largest quantity of animal food products. More than one-third of the world's cattle are found in the tropics. Disease is the major factor which prohibits full utilization of these regions for cattle production. Various infectious and transmissible viral, rick ettsial, bacterial, and particularly protozoan and helminthic diseases, are widespread in the tropics and exert a heavy toll on the existing cattle industry there. This uncontrolled disease situation also discourages investment in cattle industries by private and government sectors. In Africa alone, it is estimated that 125 million head of cattle could be accommodated in the tropical rainbelt if the disease and other animal husbandry factors could be resolved. The potential of efficient cattle production under more favorable conditions prompted various international agencies to establish a multi million dollar International Laboratory for Research in Animal Diseases (lLRAD) in Nairobi, Kenya, Africa. In South America, principal sites for raising cattle are shifting to the savannah lands because the more fertile soils are being used for crop produc tion, however, in the savannahs also, disease remains the most powerful deterrent in implementing the cattle industry.
