Sera of dogs (n = 30), with serologically confirmed monocytic ehrlichiosis (Ehrlichia canis, n = 21) or borreliosis (Borrelia burgdorferi, n = 9) were tested for presence of antibodies accompanying platelets (anti-platelet antibodies – APA). The analysis was carried out in the flow cytometer based on the principle of indirect anti-globulin test, using FITC-labeled antiglobulin conjugate against canine IgG. Out of the 30 examined dogs, antibodies directed against thrombocytes were indicated in total 10 cases (33.3%).
