Abstract
The present study was undertaken to develop the kit for indirect immunofluorescence antibody test(IFAT) and to investigate the prevalence of N caninum in cattle and dogs in Korea. The neo-antigen kit of IFAT developed in our laboratory was proved diagnostic efficacy by compared with the kit of veterinary medical research and development(VMRD). A survey of N caninum infections among cow and dogs in elevn areas of southern part of country was performed using a IFAT. The infection rate of 190 nationwide cattle was 8.4%(16/190) but was 75%(45/60) at P area in Chunnam province where the cattle showed the abortion repeatedly. Any of the dogs was not N caninum -positive in the Kangwon and Kyonggi areas.
