title: [Development of a rapid method, based on the latex agglutination reaction, for diagnosing carnivore plaque].
abstract: A highly effective rapid method for detecting carnivore plague virus antigen in dogs, based on the latex agglutination test, is developed. Latex conjugate is synthesized on the base of polystyrene suspension, representing a copolymer of styrene and methacrylic acid. The immunospecific reagent is gamma-globulin fraction of rabbit serum containing antibodies specific to carnivore plague virus. The resultant latex conjugate can be used in practical veterinary as a diagnostic agent for screening dogs for carnivore plague virus.
