Title: | Serological methods for infectious bronchitis virus in laying hens | Contributor(s): | Roberts, Juliet Rosemary (author); Ball, Wendy (author); Chubb, Roger Charles (author); Sulaiman, Abrani (author); Jolly, Megan (author) | Publication Date: | 2004 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/4315 | Abstract: | Measurements of infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) antibody titres by IDEXX IBV antibody ELISA were compared with the results of agar-gel precipitation (AGP) and serum neutralisation (SN) tests. The percentage of samples testing positive by AGP and SN increased as the ELISA IBV antibody titre increased. Although it is not clear at what antibody titre level birds are protected against intercurrent infection, a mean IBV antibody titre measured by IDEXX ELISA of 439 correlated with a high level of protection against exposure to T-strain IBV. A comparison of two different IBV antibody ELISA kits showed a significant linear correlation although individual samples did not always correlate closely. | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | APSS 2004: 16th Annual Australian Poultry Science Symposium, Sydney, Australia, 9 - 11 February, 2004 | Source of Publication: | Proceedings of the Australian Poultry Science Symposium, v.16, p. 157-160 | Publisher: | University of Sydney | Place of Publication: | Sydney, Australia | ISSN: | 1034-3466 1034-6260 |
