The prevalence of IgG antibodies to spotted fever group rickettsiae was studied by the indirect immunofluorescent antibody assay in a sample of 194 canine sera from different parts of Croatia. Dogs (n = 141) from urban and suburban-semirural environs from the middle part of the eastern coast of Adriatic sea, and dogs (n = 53) from Zagreb, the capital of Croatia located in the northern continental part of Croatia, were tested. The total of 88 (62.4%) dogs from southern coastal Croatia had antibodies to Rickettsia conorii, with a significantly higher prevalence (69.9%) in suburban-semirural areas. The prevalence rate of antibodies to Rickettsia conorii in canine sera from urban environment in the north of Croatia was 20.7%. The results show that the members of spotted fever group rickettsiae are present in both coastal and continental Croatia.
采用间接免疫荧光抗体检测法，对来自克罗地亚不同地区的194份犬血清样本进行了斑点热群立克次体IgG抗体的流行率研究。检测了来自亚得里亚海东岸中部城市和城郊半农村地区的141只犬，以及位于克罗地亚北部大陆地区的首都萨格勒布的53只犬。克罗地亚南部沿海地区共有88只（62.4%）犬对康氏立克次体有抗体，在城郊半农村地区的流行率显著更高（69.9%）。克罗地亚北部城市环境中犬血清对康氏立克次体的抗体流行率为20.7%。结果表明，斑点热群立克次体在克罗地亚的沿海和大陆地区均有存在。
