A rapid quantitative method for detecting infectious bursal disease virus using polystyrene latex microspheres

T Nakamura et al. J Virol Methods. 1993 Jun.

Abstract

A monoclonal antibody (mAb) to infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) was bound to polystyrene latex microspheres. The microspheres agglutinated with extracts of bursae and sera from chickens infected with all strains or isolates of IBDV tested. Agglutination appeared within a 10-min reaction time. The assay could detect a 10(3.7) to 10(4.5) mean embryo infective dose (EID50) of the virus in 0.01 ml and the titer of the assay was 10- to 40-times higher than that of the agar gel precipitin test.
