Swine sera collected from January to December 2000 were tested for the survey on transmissible gastroenteritis(TGE) infection in Gyeongbuk province. Serum neutralization(SN) test was peformed in finishing pigs of 50 pigs industry without clinical signs of TGE and sows, gilts and growing pigs of four pigs industry with TGE. As the results of SN test in fifty industry, antibody titers of 90.6%(474/523 samples) showed below 4. Antibody titers of them showed highly in two pigs industry of western region and three pigs industry of southern region of Gyeongbuk province. The results indicated that TGE had been occurred before in five pigs industry. Most of antibody titers showed of highly in four pigs industry having had TGE. There were no significant differences of the antibody titers of TGE according to age when the survey was made. The above results indicated that the pigs of Gyeongbuk province were not almost exposed in porcine respiratory coronavirus(PRCV) by present.
