Abstract

The duration of maternally-derived antibodies against three arboviruses was investigated in calves, using the results of arbovirus serosurveillance performed in Kagoshima Prefecture during 2002-2016. The duration of maternally-derived antibodies against Akabane virus (AKAV), Aino virus (AINOV), and Chuzan virus (CHUV) was estimated to be 178 (sensitivity: 0.769, specificity: 0.730), 156 (sensitivity: 0.806, specificity: 0.791), and 156 days of age (sensitivity: 0.845, specificity: 0.814), by receiver operating characteristic analysis. The duration of maternally-derived antibodies against AKAV, AINOV, and CHUV differed 7-14, 22-28, and 20-31 days in the same calf types between the regions far from each other although it was similar between the adjacent regions. The dairy calves showed 6-29 days longer duration than the beef calves rearing in a similar region.

Keywords: arbovirus; calf; duration; maternal antibody; receiver operating characteristic analysis.
