  • Title: Use of egg yolk in serological tests (ELISA and HI) to detect antibody to Newcastle disease, infectious bronchitis, and Mycoplasma gallisepticum.
    Author: Piela TH, Gulka CM, Yates VJ, Chang PW.
    Journal: Avian Dis; 1984; 28(4):877-83. PubMed ID: 6098252.
    Abstract:
    Serum and yolks from commercial flocks and from hens exposed to Newcastle disease virus (NDV), infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), and Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) were tested for immunoglobulin G antibody by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the hemagglutination-inhibition (HI) test. Yolks prepared by chloroform extraction and low-speed centrifugation performed well in the serological tests used and were a suitable alternative to serum for antibody determination by the ELISA for NDV, IBV, and MG and by HI test for NDV.
