The aim of the study was to examine the prevalence of antibodies against E. intestinalis in the blood serum of swine by the ELISA test and the possible effects of different states of the reproductive period on the occurrence of antibodies. The presence of specific anti-E. intestinalis antibodies was detected in 30 (56.6%) of 53 sows from the total count of examined sera. Each of the positive sera was reacted by the titre 1 : 200. Serological positivity to E. intestinalis was detected in 10 (58.8%) sows one week after birth of 17, in 6 (50%) sows one week before the birth of 12, in 7 (58.3%) sows one week after the weaning of 12 and in 7 (58.3%) sows one month after the birth of 12. The study did not detect any meaningful effect in the different state of the reproductive period of sows on the occurrence of antibodies.
