SVANOVIR BCV-Ab

The SVANOVIR BCV-Ab is an Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) for the detection of antibodies to Bovine Coronavirus in serum, plasma, and milk samples (individual and bulk milk) of infected cattle. The assay has been successfully used in longitudinal field studies on virus dynamics and evaluation of management routines. Benefits to control programs include the test´s ability to detect changes in antibody levels by analysing paired samples and thereby identifying recent exposure to BCV.
 

Features and benefits:

• Field-proven assay – used for the control of BLV in Scandinavia, the Netherlands, Croatia, Canada and Australia
• High analytical sensitivity, repeatedly proven in bulk tank milk and dilution studies
• Fulfils detection of E05 in those dilutions stated in EU directive 88/406/EEC
• Accurate results in proficiency tests organized by the OIE Reference Laboratory for Enzootic Bovine Leukosis in Poland
• Prescribed test method for international trade by OIE
