Abstract: |
A total of 403 blood samples of cattle of different age group, breed and sex were collected from six districts of eastern terai region namely Siraha, Udayapur, Saptari, Sunsari, Morang and Jhapa. Out of 403 cattle included in this study, 80 ( 19.85%) cattle had detectable level of antibodies against T. annulata by SOELISA. The highest seroprevalence (26.06%) was observed in Morang district followed by Siraha (21.43%), Sunsari (19.67%), Jhapa (12.50%), Saptari (8.00%) and Udayapur (7.94%). Out of 134 male cattle, 28 (20.90%) and out of 269 females, 52 (19.36%) female cattle were serologically positive. The differences in seroprevalance rates were insignificant between male and female cattle. The overall breed wise seroprevalence ofT. annulata infection in crossbreds and indigenous cattle was recorded as 21.88 and 19.22 percent, respectively. The highes~ prevalence(~ 1.33) was recorded in >4 year's age group of cattle. |
