title: [Immunologic diagnosis of animal hydatidosis--Preliminary results].
abstract: Immunological reactions for diagnosis of Hydatidosis in cattle and swine are studied, such as Casoni, Latex agglutination and Serum-precipitation. The preliminary data shows that procedures may be useful in clinical practice of bovines. The same techniques in swine shows much promise, but requires further evaluation. The intradermal test for Hydatic disease, introduced by Casoni (1911) has been employed in some parts of the world and seems to be of high sensitivity in bovine. Latex agglutination and precipitation Test may be used in cases of weak skin reactions.
