Abstract
Giardiasis was detected in 53.5% of dogs examined by FASTest Giardia Strip for use in dogs. Using the ProSpecT Giardia EZ Microplate Assay 52.2% of these results was confirmed. Cysts of Giardia spp. were found only in 6.5% of samples of feces examined by flotation or decantation techniques. The examinations confirmed problems with coproscopic diagnosis of giardiasis in dogs. They confirmed the greater usefulness of FASTest Giardia Strip for immunodiagnostic of giardiasis in carnivores.Entities:
