The antemortem diagnosis of canine distemper is based on the demonstration of viral antigens in scrapings and body fluids such as conjunctival and vaginal smears, tracheal washings and Table 2 Clinical signs, age and breed of CD-positive specimens Table 3 Analysis of the sensitivity and specificity of the IC assay relative to nested PCR results in detecting CDV in specimens from dogs suspected to have CD a IC assay result One study using nested PCR analysis revealed that of 22 blood, 20 urine, 25 saliva, and 27 nasal swab samples from dogs suspected to have CD, 81.8%, 75%, 56%, and 70.3% tested positive, respectively (Shin et al., 2004) .	./cache/cord-270526-o4hsr4pm.txt	./txt/cord-270526-o4hsr4pm.txt
