Blood and milk samples were collected from all lactating BLV-positive cows on each farm and 5 to 10 BLV-seronegative cows depending on herd size. Blood and milk samples were tested for anti-BLV antibodies using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Complete blood counts were performed on blood samples, and standard components analyses were obtained for milk samples. Proviral load was determined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction for each cow.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The inverse of lymphocyte count, the square of the inverse of lymphocyte count, and milk ELISA percent positivity were positively associated with increasing PVL in BLV-positive cows.
