| description | A study was carried out to determine the prevalence of Equine Infectious Anemia
Virus (EIAV) among horses of various clubs in the state of Selangor. A total of 94
serum samples was obtained from horses of various breeds, sex and age and tested
for the presence of antibodies against EIAV using; (i) competitive enzyme-linked
immunosorbent assay (CELISA) and (ii) agar gel immunodiffusion (AGID) test, to
demonstrate the presence of antibodies against p26 recombinant gag protein. All
horses sampled in this study were kept in stables and have access to paddock grazing.
Horses have no history of contact with imported stocks. In this study none of the
sera had antibodies against EIA virus. It is possible that the strict import policies
imposed, and the almost non-existent importation of horses for the purpose of
breeding has prevented the introduction of the disease into Malaysia. |
