경남지역에서의 Latex응집반응을 이용한 소 톡소플라즈마 항체분포 조사
Abstract
This study was conducted to determine the serum antibodies against toxoplasma in bovine from gyeongnam district by latex agglutination(LA) test. LA test was carried out with Toxo-MT kit(Eikon chemical co). The result obtained were summerized as follow: 1. Positive rates of toxoplasma antibodies in 1,488 bovine sera was 5.0%(75 cases) by LA test. 2. The toxoplasma antibody detection rates against 823 korean cattle and 865 dairy cattle were 1.8%(11 cases) and 7.4%(64 cases) respectively. 3. In LA test serum antibody titers in 75 positive sera were shown as 54 cases(72.0% in 1:32, 9(12.0%) in 1:64, 7(9.4%) in 1:128, 3(3.40%) in 1:256, 1(1.3%) in 512 and 1(1.3%) in 1:2,048 respectively. 4.
