The objective of the present study is to assess the seroprevalence of bluetongue (BT)
among domestic ruminants of Northern Kerala. Sera samples from cattle (82), goat (40) and
sheep (50) collected from districts of Wayanad, Kozhikode and Palakkad respectively were
tested using competitive enzyme linked immune-sorbent assay (cELISA). Out of the 172
samples tested, the overall BT seroprevalence was 9.3%. There is an increase in
prevalence from previous reports which may indicate possible outbreaks in future.
