Application of dried whole blood collected on filter paper disks to ELISA for the detection of Sendai virus and mouse hepatitis virus antibodies in mice.
This study was undertaken to simplify the preparation procedures for test specimens by applying whole blood collected on filter paper disks. The results of ELISA obtained using specimens collected in this way for the detection of Sendai virus and mouse hepatitis virus antibodies in mice were comparable to those for ordinary ELISA using serum samples.
