Seroprevalence of flaviviruses antibodies in water buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis)in Brazilian Amazon
BackgroundThe state of Pará encompasses 26% of Brazilian Amazon where an enormous diversity of arboviruses has been found. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and distribution of hemagglutination-inhibition antibodies against antigens of six Flavivirus(yellow fever virus, Ilheus virus, Saint L...
