ELISA TEST Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotypes 5a 5b Swinecheck

This is an immunoenzymatic assay for the detection of antibodies against Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotypes 5a, 5b in porcine serum.

DESCRIPTION:
This is an immunoenzymatic assay for the detection of antibodies against Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotypes 5a, 5b in porcine serum.

SUMMARY AND EXPLANATION:
Pleuropneumonia caused by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae serotypes 5a, 5b is an important porcine disease that can result in considerable economic losses. Herds are often chronically infected without clinical symptoms. However, following a stressful situation, several clinical cases with mortality can occur. Since horizontal transmission through airways is quite important and infection is usually inapparent, serology becomes an indispensable tool for its detection

CHARACTERISTICS:
- Indirect ELISA: Specific antigens to serotypes 5a, 5b
- Rapid (Less than 2 hours)
- Tests per kit: 184 samples
