PINO-RODRIGUEZ, Duniel; MARQUEZ-ALVAREZ, Mario; ROJAS-HOYOS, Nicolás Andrés  y  TORRES GONZALEZ-CHAVEZ, Mitchell. Seroprevalence of Canine parvovirus in dogs of Boyeros municipality, Havana, Cuba. Rev Salud Anim. [online]. 2018, vol.40, n.1, pp.00-00. ISSN 0253-570X.

In order to determine the seroprevalence of antibodies against Canine parvovirus (CPV), blood samples were taken from 160 dogs over one year old. This study was carried out in Boyeros municipality, Havana, Cuba. For sera evaluation, an indirect ELISA was used. It was standardized by the division of the Biotechnology and Quality Control of CENPALAB (National Center for the Production of Laboratory Animals). A mixture of previously titrated sera from animals vaccinated against CPV was used as a positive control, and a canine serum free of specific antibodies as a negative control. Seroprevalence was determined by means of a cross-sectional observational epidemiological study, with the use of estimation data of the municipality's population. There was a seroprevalence of 95.63 % Canine parvovirus in the dogs of Boyeros municipality. This study showed a high prevalence in the studied population, which indicated a previous exposure to the agent and its wide circulation
