By using a monoclonal antibody directed against an epitope located on glycoprotein B of bovine herpesvirus 1 (BHV1), a simple, convenient blocking enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) which combines a high sensitivity with a low false-positive rate has been developed. The test can be performed at low variance on undiluted bovine serum samples. The epitope on glycoprotein B appears to be conserved, because it could be detected by immunostaining in all of 160 BHV1 isolates originating from 10 countries. In testing 215 anti-BHV1 antibody-negative and 179 anti-BHV1 antibody-positive serum samples, specificity and sensitivity were 0.96 and 0.99, respectively. This blocking ELISA is superior to a commercially available indirect ELISA and to the 24-h virus neutralization test in detecting low antibody levels in serum. In addition, this blocking ELISA is able to detect specific antibodies in serum as early as 7 days postinfection. To minimize any risk of introducing latent BHV1 carriers among noninfected cattle, this blocking ELISA would be, in our opinion, the test of choice.

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).

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.
