A total of 200 milk samples from cattle (n= 86) and buffalo (n=114) were evaluated using milk ring test (MRT) and indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (i-ELISA).
The overall prevalence was found to be 3% and 8.5% in cattle and buffaloes using MRT and i-ELISA, respectively.
The prevalence was 4.6% and 1.7% in cattle and buffalo using MRT, respectively, while i-ELISA exhibited 20% and 0% in cattle and buffalo, respectively.
The prevalence was higher in government dairy farm, compared to privately owned dairy farm.
