[Indirect hemagglutination for Eperythrozoon suis detection in experimentally and spontaneously infected swine].

Ten splenectomized and non-splenectomized pigs were experimentally infected with E. suis bearing red blood cells in order to determine the antibody response. All animals were monitored for antibody titer by indirect hemagglutination over a period of 80-290 days postinfection. Latent E. suis infection only yielded a detectable antibody titer in one pig. Acutely infected pigs had a titer ranging up to 1:640. Maximum antibody response lasted only 2 months and dropped below the level of detection of our assay within 2 to 3 months. At this time, the clinical symptoms could reappear and antibodies were again detectable. However, no booster effect was observed with this second outbreak. We also determined the antibody frequency in 138 pigs from 16 herds in Southern Germany. Pigs from only 4 out of 6 clinically positive herds had antibody titer against E. suis. 20 out of 78 pigs of the clinical positive herds demonstrated a detectable E. suis antibody titer. In 10 herds that were asymptomatic and presumed uninfected all 80 pigs were serologically negative for E. suis.
