Here we established BCoV serology based on a recombinant immunofluorescence assay for cattle, goats and sheep, and studied the seroprevalence of BCoV in these species in four different locations in the Greater Accra, Volta, Upper East, and Northern provinces of Ghana. This study evaluated the sero-prevalence of BCoV infection and assessed its associated risk factors among cattle, sheep, and goats in Ghana. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to determine the possible factors associated with BCoV sero-positivity for cattle, sheep, and goats.
