Aim: A rapid and reliable test is needed by the veterinary practitioners although the canine brucellosis can be diagnosed by bacteriological, molecular and serological methods. By this study, developing a dipstick EIA for a rapid serodiagnosing the infection was aimed.

Materials and Methods: The test was compared with Rapid Agglutination Test iELISA.

Results: Sensitivity and specificity of the test were 82% and 95%, respectively when iELISA was evaluated as gold standard.

Conclusion: Since the test has a good degree of specifity it is recommended as a screening test in the field.
