Sera from 269 wild rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.) trapped in 1985 and 1986 in Camargue and Vaucluse, France, were studied for antibody against 9 arboviruses. By inhibition haemagglutination test, positive reactions were found only against West-Nile (0.37%). By complement fixation test, antibodies were detected against Eyach (0.92%) and Tribec (0.46%). These results are discussed according to arboviruses isolated in France, to previous serosurveys in rabbits and other mammals and to potential vectors known to occur in France. Potential impact on rabbit population is also discussed.

D003168 Complement Fixation Tests Serologic tests based on inactivation of complement by the antigen-antibody complex (stage 1). Binding of free complement can be visualized by addition of a second antigen-antibody system such as red cells and appropriate red cell antibody (hemolysin) requiring complement for its completion (stage 2). Failure of the red cells to lyse indicates that a specific antigen-antibody reaction has taken place in stage 1. If red cells lyse, free complement is present indicating no antigen-antibody reaction occurred in stage 1.
