Differentiation of porcine enterovirus serotypes by complement fixation |
|
| Authors: | N J Knowles L S Buckley |
| Abstract: | A complement fixation test in microtitre plates for the differentiation of porcine enterovirus serotypes is described, employing guinea pig antisera prepared using inactivated purified viruses. Eleven porcine enterovirus serotypes and swine vesicular disease virus were compared and clearly distinguished from each other. In addition, 71 porcine enterovirus strains and isolates were tested and each was identified as belonging to one of the 11 serotypes. |
