The presence of specific antibodies against N. caninum in the blood serum of dairy cows is investigated in the present study. A total of 184 blood serum samples of dairy cows were examined in Bursa province in the Marmara Region. N. caninum antibodies were measured using an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (The Svanovir Neospora-Ab ELISA). From the total sample, antibodies to N. caninum were detected in 62 of the 184 examined cows (33.3%) and neurological findings were seen in a calf.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessAbortBursaDairy cowsELISANeospora caninumTurkeyVeterinary sciencesRisk-factorsCattleTransmissionPathogenesisEpidemiologyHerdsArticle0005269416000122-s2.0-8508518601620192022711Pubmed numarasıVeterinary SciencesNeospora; Toxoplasma Gondii; TachyzoitesAdultAnimal experimentAntibody titerArticleBlood samplingDairy cattleEmbryo deathEnzyme linked immunosorbent assayFemaleLivestockMilk yieldNeospora caninumNeosporosisNeurologic diseaseNonhumanRetrospective studySeroprevalenceSpastic paresisTremor
