摘要
Giardia intestinalis antigen in fecal samples was examined in 361 dogs of 14 breeding kennels located at various areas in Japan, using a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit. G. intestinalis antigen was detected in 37.4% of the fecal specimens. All of the 14 breeding kennels were positive for G. intestinalis antigen with the range from 6.7 to 59.3%. The prevalence in puppies (54.5%) was significantly (p<0.01) higher than that in adults (30.9%). There was no difference in prevalence between males and females, and between the puppies from the mother dogs positive and negative for Giardia antigen. In conclusion, G. intestinalis widely invaded the breeding kennels in Japan.
