Abstract

The results of the HA test were compared qualitatively and quantitatively with SF and IFI tests. Eighty canine serum samples were tested by the three techniques. There was an agreement of over 86% in SF-HA and 92% in IFI-HA tests. At a difference of one dilution (four-fold) there was 94% agreement in antibody titers between the SF-HA tests and 97% agreement in antibody titers between the IFI-HA tests.
