摘要
The objectives of this study were to investigate the risk factors of infection in dogs and cats found in dairy herds in western Thailand. A case-control study was conducted in dairy herds in three western provinces including Nakhon Pathom, Ratchaburi and Kanchanaburi. Blood samples of pets from 14 positive dairy herds and 26 herds from negative neighbouring farms which were randomly selected, in total blood samples from dogs and cats from 40 herds were collected and examined for antibodies against infections using competitive ELISA and indirect fluorescent antibody test (IFAT). No seropositive cats were found. Of the 38 positive dogs, four (10.5%) were seropositive to , which was higher than the proportion of seropositive in the negative herd population (one of 76, 1.3%). The higher proportion of seropositive farm dogs as compared with neighbouring dogs tended to be significant ( = 0.055).
