[Antibodies against Hantaviruses in game and domestic oxen in the Czech Republic].

Using the test of indirect immunofluorescence, the authors examined sera of animals for antibodies against the strain CG 18-20 of Hantavirus (identical with strain Puumala) and against the Hantaan strain.

[Use of the rose bengal test in the diagnosis of brucellosis in hares].

The diagnostic effectiveness of the Rose bengal test was verified in a set of 72 samples of the blood of hare shot in a focus of brucellosis; the blood was found to be serologically positive by the following methods: rapid agglutination with serum, surface fixation test, method of slow agglutination, and the complement fixation reaction. The Rose bengal test was found positive in 57 cases (79.17%), the surface agglutination test was positive in 60 cases (83.
