Lack of transplacental transmission of Bartonella bovis

Highlights • To assess the vertical transmission of Bartonella in cattle. • Fifty-six cow-calf pairs were tested for Bartonella bacteremia and/or serology. • None of the 29 (52%) bacteremic cows gave birth to bacteremic calves. • B. bovis was not detected in placental cotyledons. • Transplacental tr...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • To assess the vertical transmission of Bartonella in cattle. • Fifty-six cow-calf pairs were tested for Bartonella bacteremia and/or serology. • None of the 29 (52%) bacteremic cows gave birth to bacteremic calves. • B. bovis was not detected in placental cotyledons. • Transplacental transmission of B. bovis and multiplication of the bacteria in the placenta do not seem likely.
