【 摘 要 】

Serum samples of 562 goats were tested for Caprine arthritis-encephalitis using agar gel immunodiffusion test (AGID) and enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Seventy-nine samples (14.1%) were reactive by both testes but 141 (25.1%) were reactive only by ELISA. ELISA, when compared to AGID, presented 100% sensitivity and 70.8% specificity.
