Annal Selva; Prabu, K.; Gunaseelan, L.ThesisItem Open Access CURRENT STATUS OF URBAN LEPTOSPIROSIS IN ANIMAL POPULATION AND ITS PUBLIC HEALTH SIGNIFICANCE.(TANUVAS, Chennai, 2015) Bojiraj, M.; TANUVAS; Porteen, K.; Gunaseelan, L.; Sureshkannan, S.A study was conducted to identify the current status of urban leptospirosis in animal and human population covering different locations in Tamil Nadu by antigen detection method (Dark field microscopy and Polymerase Chain Reaction) and antibody detection (microscopic agglutination test and a developed in house i-ELISA). A total of 931 samples comprising of 118 Canine (serum- 108 and urine -10), 161 bovine (serum- 102, urine- 49, milk-3 and aborted contents-7), 156 equine (serum-152 and urine-4), 153 rodent (serum-60, urine-33 and kidney tissue-60), 177 swine serum and 166 human serum were collected from different locations in Tamil Nadu. All samples were collected from animals/human of unknown disease status.OtherItem Open Access Detection of Meat Adulteration by Using PCR from Cooked Meat Samples in Chennai City Food Outlets(TANUVAS, 2014-12) Prabu, K.; Gunaseelan, L.; Gwande, Monica; Bojiraj, M.; Porteen, K.; Selva Malar, P. AnnalOtherItem Open Access Microbial Assessment of Chicken Liver from the Retail Market(TANUVAS, 2014-12) Karthikeyan, A.; Suganya, G.; Malar, P. Annal Selva; Gunaseelan, L.; Bojiraj, M.OtherItem Open Access A New Direction for Diagnosis of Hydatidosis in Food Animals by Application of PCR(TANUVAS, 2014-12) Giri, T.; Gunaseelan, L.; Prabu, K.; Porteen, K.; Bojiraj, M.; Sekar, M.ArticleItem Open Access Seroprevalence of Leptospirosis in Animals and Its Public Health Significance(2017-11) Bojiraj, M.; Porteen, K.; Gunaseelan, L.; Sureshkannan, S.; TANUVASA study was conducted to identify the status of seroprevalence of leptospirosis in animal population by Microscopic Agglutination Test (antibody detection) covering different locations in Tamil Nadu, India. A total of 447 sera samples were collected with unknown disease status from different animal species viz., 108 canine, 102 bovine, 177 swine and 60 rodents. 47.2 (51/108) per cent of canine sera, 41.1 (42/102) per cent bovine sera, 15.8 (28/177) per cent swine sera and 40 (24/60) per cent rodent sera were positive for leptospirosis by Microscopic Agglutination Test. Most predominant serovars are Australis and Autumnalis in all species found in this study. Seroprevalence of new serovars other than vaccinal serovars indicates that these serovars may be included in vaccines preparation for prevention of leptospirosis outbreaks in animal and human population.ArticleItem Open Access Veterinary Drug Residues in Environment - Potential Hazards(Indian Veterinary Journal, 2016-07) Netra, B. Aswar; Gunaseelan, L.; Porteen, K.; Bojiraj, M.; TANUVASThis study analyzed 83 dairy cows urine samples undergoing antibiotic treatment with known history and were screened for the antibiotics residues by LAST test in Nutrient agar against standard strains or Gram positive and Gram negative micro-organisms. Results of this study imply that antibiotics are excreted in (12.04%) urine samples tested common being enrooxacin and oxytetracycline. The excretory pattern of antibiotics in urine and their potential as an environmental contaminant to enter the food chain beside the possibility of development of antibiotic resistant organism is discussed.
