title: [Detection of antibodies against infectious viral laryngotracheitis and parainfluenza 2 in dogs bred in Czechoslovakia].
abstract: A total of 398 blood serums of dogs of various breeds and age categories, coming from 72 places in Bohemia and Slovakia, were examined for the content of haemagglutination-inhibiting (HI) antibodies to the infectious laryngotracheitis virus (CADV-2) and parainfluenza 2 virus (CPIV-2). Out of this total number, 203 serums (51.1%) reacted against CADV-2 in titres from 1:16 to 1:2048 and 115 serums (28.9%) against CPIV-2 in titres from 1:2 to 1:256. The results indicate that the dog population is considerably infected with viruses affecting the respiratory organs.
