Abstract

Haemagglutination-inhibition (HI) test with 1% (V/V) porcine red blood cells was used to assay serum antibody (Ab) to canine parvovirus (CPV) in dogs which attended the clinics at Kuala Lumpur, Petaling Jaya, Kajang and Serdang. CPV Ab titres were analysed with respect to the age, sex, breed and vaccination status of dogs. Majority (90%) of the dogs vaccinated with modified live (ML) CPV had high serum HI Ab titres(≥ 5120) whereas approximately 90% of nonvaccinated dogs and more than 90% of dogs of unknown vaccination history had serum HI AB titres ≥ 80 and ≥ 5120 respectively. Maternal serum HI Ab to CPV was present in non-vaccinated puppies up to 16 weeks of age. There was no significant difference in the levels of serum HI Ab to CPV in dogs of different ages, sexes and vaccination status. Majority (≥ 95%) of the mongrels had protective level (≥ 80) of serum HI Ab to CPV whereas approximately 10-15% of purebreed and crossbreed dogs had serum HI Ab to CPV below the protective level.
