Product OverviewThe SVANOVIR Neospora-Ab is an Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) designed for the detection of Neospora specific antibodies in bovine serum, plasma, and milk samples (including individual samples, pools, and bulk tank milk). This assay utilizes a novel antigen presentation technology (“iscom”) that provides high specificity. The ability to test both serum and milk in the same assay, along with the capacity to differentiate between acute and chronic infections, makes it a valuable tool for control programs.
Features and Benefits- Reliably detects N. caninum with minimal misidentification of antibodies to other closely related parasites
- Anti-ruminant conjugate enables detection of N. caninum also in sheep and goat
- Extra protocol allows discrimination between acute and chronic infections
- Bulk milk screening provides an effective way for monitoring control plans
- Developed in collaboration with experts from the Swedish Agricultural University and Veterinary Institute
