| Summary: | <b> Aim:</b> The purpose of this study was to investigate Chlamydophila
abortus in fetal abomasal contents of cattle from
Aksaray and Konya provinces by Polymerase Chain Reaction
(PCR).<p>
<b> Materials and Methods:</b> A total of 65 fetal abomasal contents
of cattle that were sent to Veterinary Diagnostic laboratories
of Aksaray and Selçuk Üniversities from Aksaray
and Konya provinces were used as sample. The occurrence
