Abstract
A microtitration serum agglutination test, based on that used for brucellosis, has been developed to detect
antibodies in the sera of horses exposed to the contagious equine metritis (CEM) organism. Two known positive
sera were tested 100 times in 15 separate tests. The results were reproducible to within a twofold range. The test
is capable of being carried out within 100 min.
