Abstract
In the present study, samples from 100 buffaloes of either sex were collected from slaughterhouse located at Cantonment Board Mhow for the detection of ruminal amphistomosis. Blood samples with or without anticoagulant were collected to study the haematobiochemical changes in buffaloes suffered from amphistomosis. Amphistomes were also collected for morphological identification of amphistome species in slaughtered animals. The prevalence of ruminal amphistomes was found to be 8%. The infected buffaloes in this study showed a reduction in the mean values of Hb, TEC and PCV. There was an increase in TLC and neutrophil count. Lymphocytes showed a slight decrease in their mean values and no significant changes were seen in values of basophil and eosinophil count. The infected buffaloes in this study showed a reduction in the mean values of total protein. The mean values of SGOT, SGPT and alkaline phosphatase showed an increment in the infected buffalo.
