Standardization and application of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for infectious bronchitis.
The indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect antibody to infectious bronchitis virus in chickens. The serum-neutralization test for infectious bronchitis (SNIB) was used as a reference serologic test. The ELISA proved to be useful for monitoring antibody responses following vaccination of leghorn chicks. The titers obtained with the ELISA and SNIB showed an overall correlation, but results suggest the involvement of different antibody classes.
