The study was undertaken to investigate the frequency distribution of predominant Leptospira serovars as well as to establish the prevalence of Leptospira antibodies in enzootic Surat and Navsari districts of south Gujarat. A total of 1014 purposive random serum samples from livestock species (Cattle n = 622; Buffaloes n = 246 and Goats n = 146) were collected in the rainy season during 2015–2016. The samples were tested in microscopic agglutination test using a panel of 18 reference Leptospira serovars covering 16 Leptospira serogroups. The overall seroprevalence of 30.6% (310/1014) with 25.9% in cattle, 39.0% in buffaloes and 36.3% in goats were observed in the study. Further, the Chi-squared test analysis showed that the presence of antibodies was associated with the studied districts (χ2 = 123.7, p Not Available |
