The application of micromodification of mercaptoethanol
agglutination test to the serologic diagnosis qf Br. canis infection was evalZlated.
The prevalence of antibodies to Br. canis and Br. abortııs in three different groups Of dogs was also inı'estigated. Sera were compared by AfA- TA T ( Mercaptoethanol Tube Agglııtination Test), ME-MAT (Mercaptoethanol MicroAgglutination Test) MA T (Micro Agglutination Test) for agglutinins to
Br. canis alZd tested h)! MA T for agglııtinins to Br. abortus. A titer of i:200
in M E- TA T was considered as indicative of active Br. canis infection. This
titer corresponded to i:40 in ME-MA T. All results of ME-MAT correlated
well with those of Af E- TA T. MATfor Br. canis infection did not give reliable
result.
Of 222 sera examined, 14 (6.3 %) had a titer of 1:200 or more and
these were considered as active Br. canis ilZfection. None of the military service
dogs were positive for Br. canis whereas 15.6 % of stray dogs and 4.5 % of
pets were positiDe. In AfA T for Br. abortus, afew of sera gave positive reaction
at low titer, and these were considered as negative test result.
