Detection of Felis catus Gammaherpesvirus 1 in Cats, but not Dogs, in Türkiye: Prevalence and Risk Factors. [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
The current study was carried out to determine prevalence of Felis catus gammaherpesvirus 1 (FcaGHV1) in Turkish domestic cats and dogs and to investigate potential risk factors that are associated with the detection of FcaGHV1. FcaGHV1‐specific DNA was detected in 4 (7.4%, 95% confidence interval 0.4–14.4) of the 54 feline blood samples by TaqMan real‐
