dc.description.abstractABSTRACT: We research work on "Studies on certain aspects of biliary amphistornosis in buffaloes" was under taken to study the prevalence of gigantocotylosis in naturally infected buffaloes, based on dung sample and slaughter house examination. Age, sex, breed, season wise prevalence at certain places of Chittoor and Nellore districts of Andhra Pradesh were surveyed-$ total of 221 buffaloes were examined in the present study. The present of prevalence in buffaloes was 38.91 per cent. Among the 12 places choosen the prevalence was more in Tirupati (41.67%) least in Chittoor (12.5%) in Chittoor District, whereas in Nellore District more prevalence was recorded in Nellore (48.15%) and least in Podalakur (35.71 %).The prevalence of biliary amphistomosis was more in above 4 years agc group (45%) and in females (40%). The prevalence was more in non-descriptive animals (40.68%) and also in rainy season (46.15%). Attempts were made to observe certain biochemical changes in - serum of naturally infected buffaloes. Serum total proteins (6.792 g/100 ml), albumins (3.256 g/ dl) and A/G ratio (0.921 g/dl) were decreased where as globulins (3.536 g/dl), conjugated bilirubin (0.093 g/dl) and total bilirubin (0.805 ddl) wcre increased.Attempts wcre madc to diagnose gigantocotylosis in naturally infected buffaloes by carrying out three sero diagnostic tests viz., counter current immunoelectrophoresis, ELISA and Dot - ELISA. The whole worm extract of antigen was prepared and the protein content of this antigen was prepared and the protein content of this antigen was estimated to be 11.2 mg/ml. Hyperimmune serum was raised against whole worm extract of Gigantocotyle explanaturn antigen, and serum samples selected randomly from naturally infected buffaloes with Gigantocotyle explanaturn were tested against whole worm extract of Gigantocotyle explanaturn. The CIEP, Dot - ELISA and ELISA tests showed a sensitivity of 85.8, 92 and 98 per cent respectively in detecting biliary amphistornosis in naturally infected buffaloes.en_US
