Title: A survey of canine parvovirus-2 in Albania. Author: Kusi I. Journal: Dtsch Tierarztl Wochenschr; 1997 Nov; 104(11):478-80. PubMed ID: 9429323. Abstract: Observations were made on 97 dogs that had clinical signs of enteritis and on another group of 68 unvaccinated clinically healthy dogs for detecting the prevalence of serum hemagglutination inhibiting antibody to CPV. Canine parvovirus antigens agglutinating cat RBC were detected in feces or rectal swabs from 72 of 97 dogs. An ELISA to detect CPV antigen in feces and virus isolation on cell culture were also performed. Thirty-one of 72 dogs died. Mortality was exclusively observed in the age group of 0- to 6-month old. Canine parvovirus hemagglutination inhibition antibodies were detected in sera from 45 of 68 unvaccinated dogs examined.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
