Abstract

Bluetongue (BT) is an infectious, non-contagious, insect-transmitted viral disease of sheep, other domestic, and wild ruminants caused by bluetongue virus (BTV), a prototype species of the genus Orbivirus of the family Reoviridae. The study was designed to determine the hematological and biochemical alterations and acute phase protein response in BTV sero-negative sheep experimen- tally infected with bluetongue virus serotype-10 and 24. The BTV-infected group comprising of 18 animals, 6 each inoculated with 6 ml of clarified virus containing 1 × 10 /ml TCID of BTV-10 or 24 by intradermal route, 6 animals inoculated with equal volumes of BTV-10 and 24 and 4 animals with 6 ml of mock infected culture fluid served as uninfected control group. The blood and serum samples were analyzed at 0, 1, 3, 7, 11, and 16 days post-infection (DPI). Hematological findings in this study showed a significant decrease in the total number of white blood cells in BTV-10 infected group, a significant increase in circulating neutrophils decrease in lymphocytes in all the infected groups, in PCV in BTV-24 and co-infected groups, and RBC count in only BTV-24-infected group at 11 DPI.
