LLANOS-SALINAS, Samantha-P.; COBOS-MARIN, Laura  y  CANDANOSA-ARANDA, Eugenia. Immunohistochemical diagnosis of Caprine alphaherpesvirus 1 (CpHV-1) in Mexico. Austral j. vet. sci. [online]. 2018, vol.50, n.3, pp.139-142. ISSN 0719-8000.  http://dx.doi.org/10.4067/S0719-81322018000300139.

The aim of this study was to identify the presence of Caprine alphaherpesvirus 1 (CpHV-1) in goat organs with suggestive injuries caused by the virus. A descriptive and retrospective study was performed, selecting necropsy cases suggestive of CpHV-1infection during a period of five years. Forty eight suspected cases were obtained, to which the immunohistochemistry technique with a CpHV-1 monoclonal antibody, was applied. We observed positivity in 24 goatling cases under 15 days (50%) and in 4 cases of adult animals (8.3%). The presence of CpHV-1 in goats from the Mexican plateau is confirmed.
