title: An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detection of porcine parvovirus in fetal tissues.
abstract: An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for porcine parvovirus was developed for laboratory detection of parvovirus antigen in fetal tissues and compared with the fluorescent antibody and haemagglutination tests. The ELISA proved to be superior in terms of specificity, sensitivity, speed of performance and ease of interpretation.
