  • Title: Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for detection of antibodies against Besnoitia besnoiti in cattle.
    Author: Shkap V, Ungar-Waron H, Pipano E, Greenblatt C.
    Journal: Trop Anim Health Prod; 1984 Nov; 16(4):233-8. PubMed ID: 6441325.
    Abstract:
    The use of the ELISA method for the detection of antibodies to B. besnoiti in cattle is described and compared to the IFAT technique. One hundred and twenty-one sera were examined, of which 61 were sera of calves experimentally infected with B. besnoiti, 52 sera from field animals and eight were sera with high titres of antibodies to other parasites. The specificity of both assays correlates but ELISA seemed to be more sensitive. The ELISA technique provides a rapid and reliable method for the screening of B. besnoiti infection in cattle.
