Abstract

Abortion-causing diseases are a main economical problem in the small ruminant herds. Thus, an accurate diagnosis is necessary. However, only 30-40% of the cases sent to the laboratories can be diagnosed successfully. The infectious agents are able to colonize the cotiledonary trophoblast of placenta, and immunoprivileged area. The lack of immunity let an increased multiplication leading to the development of a necrotic placentitis. Use of antibodies against the infectious agents in immunohistiochemical techniques let the diagnosis on fixed and embedded samples. These samples can be also analyzed by PCR. The obtained results have shown that the most important pathogen involved in the abortion was Chlamydia, both alone and in co-infections with Salmonella or Coxiella.
