An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of cattle antibodies to bovine herpesvirus type 1 was developed on the basis of competition between serum antibody and a virus-neutralizing mouse monoclonal antibody. The assay showed improved sensitivity over the virus neutralization (VN) test and over an enhanced VN test in which incubation of antibody-virus mixtures was carried out for 24 h. With the ELISA, antibodies in sera from experimentally infected cattle were detected earlier after infection and showed more rapid increases in levels. A comparison of the ELISA with the VN tests by using a set of 85 field sera with low levels of antibodies demonstrated that the ELISA was the most sensitive test, detecting 10 positive serum samples that were negative by the VN tests. The ELISA was inexpensive, rapid, and highly reproducible and showed a significant improvement in sensitivity over VN tests.

D009500 Neutralization Tests The measurement of infection-blocking titer of ANTISERA by testing a series of dilutions for a given virus-antiserum interaction end-point, which is generally the dilution at which tissue cultures inoculated with the serum-virus mixtures demonstrate cytopathology (CPE) or the dilution at which 50% of test animals injected with serum-virus mixtures show infectivity (ID50) or die (LD50). Neutralization Test,Test, Neutralization,Tests, Neutralization
D011237 Predictive Value of Tests In screening and diagnostic tests, the probability that a person with a positive test is a true positive (i.e., has the disease), is referred to as the predictive value of a positive test; whereas, the predictive value of a negative test is the probability that the person with a negative test does not have the disease. Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
