Assay for Antibody in Pig Fetuses Infected with Porcine Parvovirus
Tóm tắt
Fetal fluids from field cases of fetal death were assayed for antibody to porcine parvovirus (PPV) using 3 different techniques. An indirect immunofluorescent antibody test, a counter immunoelectrophoresis test and a hemagglutination inhibition test were compared. The indirect immunofluorescent antibody test was found to be the most sensitive of the tests employed. The hemagglutination inhibition test apparently suffered from the occurrence of false positive results.
