Description |
The prevalence of enzootic bovine leukosis (BBL) among female buffaloes reared in 15 herds of the Ribeira Valley,Brazil, was zero. Serum samples (470) were submittet to agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) with a glycoprotein antigen (gp51)for the diagnosis of EBL. The fact that no seroreactive animals were detected may probably be due to the predomimmtly extensive management of buffaloes and their little or no contact with cattle, the major source ofEBL infection.
