LABOKLIN Service ID: 1166

Material

Method

IFAT

Duration

reporting of results on the day the sample is received (Mon–Fri)

Remark

  • The immunofluorescence antibody test (IFAT) is highly crossreactive with antibodies against related bacteria, e.g. Yersinia enterocolitica, and positive results should be confirmed by a Brucella canis agglutination test.
  • Agglutination tests (test number 2069) are often required for entry into non-European countries.
