Abstract:
A survey for antibodies against caprine arthritis and encephalitis (CAE) virus was undertaken in north-west Syria. Out of 72 sera, using agar immuno-diffusion test, 12.5% showed a positive reaction. Despite the seropositiveness, no clinical evidence of the infection was found in the tested animals. The findings indicate that the infection is endemic in the area studied.
