Abstract
Aim:
The aim of the present study was to carry out antigenic
detection of bluetongue virus (BTV) among the small ruminant
population of two different geographical regions of Odisha
(coastal and central) using recombinant VP7 (r-VP-7) based
sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (s-ELISA).
Materials and Methods:
Blood samples (n=274) were collected from two different
geographical pockets of Odisha, which covered mostly the coastal
and central regions. Of the total samples under study 185 were
from goat and 89 were from sheep. The blood samples were tested
for the presence of BTV antigen by r-VP7 based s-ELISA.
Results:
r-VP-7 s-ELISA detected BTV antigen in 52.43% and 44.94% of the
goat and sheep population under study, respectively. This study
highlights the antigenic persistence of BTV in the state for the
1st time.
Conclusion:
This high antigenic presence in both sheep and goat population
suggests an alarming BTV infection in field conditions which
warrants more systematic study directed toward isolation and
characterization studies as well as the implementation of
control strategy for BT in Odisha.
Keywords:
bluetongue, goat, Odisha, sheep.
