“…Our result about rate of diarrhea (19.43%) is closely related to report by (7) in Hungary which showed diarrhea incidence in newly calves (10.5%) but diarrhea percentage in calves in Southern Italy reach to 16.8% (14) and the researcher expect this rate able to increase like 19.4% by ( 6) in Czech Republic ,because occurrence of diarrhea in calves is a result of complex interactions of three sets of factors; the calf , their dam and the calf's environment including management and infectious agents. While , (18) showed diarrheic newly calves (5%) in Mozambique which that attributed to strict measurement applied on dairy herd by separate pregnant dam from other herds three days before and three day after calving and feeding new borne calf on colostrum freely during three days.…”

“…Rotaviruses are now recognized as the most important cause of severe viral gastroenteritis in humans (4), and are also major infectious cause of diarrhea in calves (5). Rotavirus infection in cattle is worldwide distribution which obtained by (6) in Brazil as19.4%, in Turkey 10.5% (7), in Sweden between 1993 and 2006 as 24-47% ( 8),also in UK the 42% (9) , in Costa Rica 7% (10), in calves in Ohio 16% (11) and 47% in south-west France (12), 27% in India by (13) ,16.8% in Southern Italy (14). Also in Iraq was reported in AL-Mosul 15.5% and in AL-Basrah 25% (15), (16).…”

The study was aimed to determine the Rota viral infection rates in diarrheic calves and effectiveness of some epidemiological factors on that rate in some provinces in Mid-Euphrates region in Iraq (Babylon, Al-Najaf, Karbala, Al-Qadisyia provinces). A total of 530 calves aged between 1-60 day were examined and fifty fecal (50) samples were collected from diarrheic calves only within six months period from November-2012 to April -2013. The fecal samples were examined for the presence of rotavirus by rapid rotavirus test (screening test), as well as the clinical examination for these diarrheic calves were done. The rapid test demonstrated that the rotavirus infection rate was 18/50 (36%). A 45.4% of rotavirus infection was found in calves less than 30 days of age which was significantly higher than 28.5% calves (30-60) days old. Male and female (37.5%, 40% respectively) were seen infected without any significant differences. The main clinical signs observed on rotavirus diarrheic calves were include, watery voluminous diarrhea with profound weakness and mild depression, so as temperature, respiration, heart rates could be decreased and appetite was changeable towards loss or anorectic. In Babylon, the highest rotavirus infection rate was recorded 60%, and less rates in Karbala 20% and 40%, 33% in AL-Najaf and AL-Qadisyia provinces respectively. The rotavirus infection rate in diarrheic calves was affected by months significantly, which it was higher at January 75%, so as in November 50%, December 40% and February 33.3%, but not recorded in March and April.

“…Rotavirus is contagious and it is transmitted from animal to animal via fecal-oral route and the incubation period would last for several days -week and the virus can infect cattle but with acute and sever form in calves than in adult which mostly become asymptomatic (4). Rotavirus infection in cattle is globally distributed and recorded in Brazil (5), Turkey (6), UK (7), Sweden (8), France (9), India (10); it was recorded in Iraq in 1982 and the recent studies were carried out in Al-Mosul, in Al-Basra and in Babel governorates (11)(12)(13).…”

Four hundred fecal samples from diarrheic calves of both sexes (1-60 days old) from four Iraqi Mid-Euphrates governorates (Babylon, Al-Najaf, Karbala and Al-Qadissiyiah) were collected to investigate rotavirus type A infection by using Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction technique. The results showed that infection rates were (14%), while the high rate (20%) was found in age of (1-30 days), however non-significant values were related to animal gender. Moreover, a high infection was recorded at January (29.5%) and the rotraviral infection was recorded in four provinces but the higher was in Babylon (23%). The clinical examination of infected calves showed voluminous watery diarrhea, profound weakness and mild depression; the body temperature, respiration and heart rates were decreased significantly and appetite was changeable towards loss or anorectic.

“…There are a variety of diagnostic methods available for the detection of rotavirus and coronavirus including PCR, ELISA, Electron microscope and Immune electron microscope (Cho et al, 2010 andJakobsson 2013). ELISA is one of the essential methods in the determination of viral antigens and has the good qualities of being fast and having the capability to handle a big number of samples at the same time (Duman andAycan 2010 andJakobsson 2013). It is used widely in calves with diarrhea in faeces for determination of Rota and Corona viral antigens (Ali et al, 2008;Dhama et al, 2009, Badiei et al, 2010and El-Bagoury et al, 2014.…”

“…It is used widely in calves with diarrhea in feces for determination of Rota and Corona viruses (Badiei et al, 2010, Robaiee and Al-Farwachi, 2013and El-Bagoury et al, 2014. ELISA had the advantage of being inexpensive for examination of many samples and has the probability of being much more sensitive (Duman andAycan, 2010 andJakobsson, 2013). Early and confirmatory diagnosis of etiological agents responsible for calf diarrhoea helps in timely follow up of appropriate prevention and control measures, which could prevent the great economic losses to farmers and the dairy industry.…”
