Abstract

Veterinary Medicine is a fairly multifaceted discipline, according to various experiences throughout almost 30 years of professional practice. Some molecular tools have been incorporated in the study of various pathogens that cause diseases in small animals, specifically associated with the study of viral agents such as canine herpes virus and canine distemper virus, mainly.
