Abstract
The haemolytic complement. (C') level of the ducks of different age gr oups was estimated by using micro-complement fixation test (micro-CFT) and radial haemolytic assay (RHA) technique. In 15-day-old duckling t he mean C' titre was very low; however, in adult ducks the titre was s ignificantly high. The C' titre decreased from 60 hr post-challenged i nfection with the duck plague virus (DPV).
