Rapid antigen and antibody, serological tests, and RT ‑ PCR-based molecular methods are widely used for the detection of microorganisms worldwide. Objectives: This study aimed by Isothermal nucleic acid amplification techniques to detect the covid-19. Methods: In this study, 200 samples of nasopharynx and oropharynx were collected from Jamaran Heart Hospital in Tehran. Covid -19 was exami...

The present study was conducted on sixty healthy female domestic ruminants that suffered from still births or abortion, to find sero-positive cases and also to determine the probable role of uterine tissue in diagnosis of akabane viral infection and viral persistency. Because of this, a serological test (ELISA) and molecular (RT-PCR) diagnostic methods were used to find the seropositive cases a...

background: rhipicephalus sanguineus and hyalomma marginatum are the most common spe­cies in sheep herds in northeast of iran. there is preliminary evidence that these species may be the vectors of babesia ovis in iran. we carried out two experiments in mashhad area, khorasan razavi province to determine whether b. ovis could be transovarially transmitted by r. san­guineus and h. marginatum . m...

Contagious agalactia is an infectious syndrome of sheep that is characterized by mastitis with reduction of milk production, arthritis, abortion, and keratoconjunctivitis. The disease is rapidly spread by the contact of the infected animals with the healthy ones. Domestic sheep and goats of both sexes can be infected at an equivalent frequency. Most of the researchers use culture and molecular ...

Sarcocystis is one of the most prevalent parasites of domestic ruminants worldwide. This study was aimed to determine prevalence of Sarcocystis infection and molecular discrimination of Sarcocystis gigantea and Sarcocystis medusiformis infecting domestic sheep. Tissue samples from 638 sheep slaughtered at Urmia abattoir were randomly collected from February 2011 to January 2012. Genomic DNA ext...

in this research 130 sheep-dung samples were collected from kermani breed in area of kerman randomly. after processing and culture of samples, the produced colonies were studied morphologically and gram stain test and the genus of these bacteria were identified using biochemical tests. the clostridia strains isolates were included 30 percent of total samples i.e. clostridiums perfringense, bara...

the present study was conducted on sixty healthy female domestic ruminants that suffered from still births or abortion, to find sero-positive cases and also to determine the probable role of uterine tissue in diagnosis of akabane viral infection and viral persistency. because of this, a serological test (elisa) and molecular (rt-pcr) diagnostic methods were used to find the seropositive cases a...
