Abstract
The present study was undertaken for the detection of Echinococcus granulosus specific antibodies in dogs by counter immunoelectrophoresis (CIEP) with two different antigens viz., somatic and excretory secretory (E/S) antigens of E. granulosus adult worm. Totally 100 field serum samples were examined for the detection of anti-E. granulosus antibodies using somatic and E/S antigens of E. granulosus. The CIEP can able detect nine and eight E. granulosus specific antibodies with E/S and somatic antigen of E. granulosus, respectively. The sensitivity was found to be 90 and 80% and the specificity was 100% with E/S and somatic antigen of E. granulosus, respectively.
