Bovine neosporosis is a parasitic disease caused by the protozoan Nesopora caninum, manifested mainly by abortion between 4- 8 months of gestation that causes significant economic losses in beef and dairy cattle. The aims of this work were to obtain isolates of N. caninum from a beef herd in Argentina and to confirm diagnosis by immunodiagnostic and PCR analysis.
