Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of antibodies to porcine cytomegalovirus.
The ELISA and indirect immunofluorescence test were compared on 56 porcine sera which were tested for antibodies to porcine cytomegalovirus. Viral antigens were prepared in cells of a pig fallopian tube line. The ELISA was found to be a sensitive reproducible and practical test to measure specific antibodies to this infection.
