Abstract
The study was conducted to detect bovine rota virus infection in diarrhoeic bovine calves. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed for detection of bovine rota virus antigen in calf faeces. During the study, 62 faecal samples were collected from buffalo and cow calves below 3 months of age belonging to organized dairy farms and with clinical finding of diarrhoea. Bovine rota virus antigen was detected in faeces of 17.74% diarrhoeic faecal samples. A higher percentage (24.24%) of diarrhoeic buffalo calves were found positive for rota virus antigen in comparison to cow calves (10.34%). Rota virus antigen was not detected in the faecal samples of non-diarrhoeic buffalo and cow calves.
