Survey on Canine Leptospiral Antibody Titer in Seoul

A serological survey for antibody of Leptospira spp. in canine was carried out from March to September, 1989 in Seoul. 182 serums collected from animal hospitals and keeping were collected and these were performed by using 12 different living antigens. In the microscopic agglutination test(MAT), being partial agglutination reaction at a serum dilution of 1：200 or over, we recorded it as positive. These results were compared with the species, sex and general conditions of canines, the areas and types of animal keeping. The results were summarized as followed ; 1. We detected the antibodies L. grippotyphosa 1 and L. icteroheamorrhagiae 1 in A area(total 48 heads ), L. canicola 1 and L. icterohaemorrhagiae 4 in B area(total 52 heads), L. hardjo 1 and L. icterohaemorrhagiae 2 in C area (total 32 heads), L. icterohaemorrhagiae 1 in D area(total 23 heads) L. grippotyposa 1 and L. icterohaemorrhagiae 2 in E area(total 27 heads) by MAT. There were positives for L. canicola 1, L. grippotyposa 2, L. hardjo 1 and L. icterohaemorrhagiae 10 in 5 areas by MAT. 2. The deteclive rate of leptospiral antibody in Jindo canine was 17.6% (3) among 17, Mixed 4.4% (4) among 90 and Exotic 9.3% (7) among 75 heads. 3. The Male(91 heads) was positive for 8.7%(8) and the female(91 heads) was positive for 6.5%(6). 4. In the vaccination, positive rate was 10.3% (7) among 55 heads, and in the unvaccination, positive rate was 5.5%(7) among 127 heads.
