摘要：Surra is caused by Trypanosoma evansi and is considered as one of the important disease in camels in India. Very o ften camel acts as the carrier of the infection with very low level of parasitaemia which cannot be detected by conventional blood smear examination. Methodology: In the present study, a pilot sero-epidemiological study was conducted among camels for trypanoso mosis in Rajasthan using purified flagellar (FLA) antigen based indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (I-ELISA) and co mpared with standard CATT/ T. evansi test. The diagnostic potentiality of purified FLA antigen based I-ELISA (FLA-I-ELISA) were eval uated using 230 camel sera samples from different districts of Rajasthan including Jaip ur, Udaipur, Bikaner, Jodhpur, and Ajmer. Results: The test showed an overall 23. 04% sero positivity (S. P). In Jaipur, S. P was found to be 23. 07%, in Udaipur 25. 5%, in Bikaner 18. 18%, in Jodhpur 25. 3% and in Ajmer, S. P was found to be 23. 33%. Conclusion: Thus, epidemiological survey were done in camels with purified FLA-I-ELISA test in different districts of Rajasthan and revealed that, Udaipur showed the maximum sero positivity for trypanosomosis.
