Recombinant protein-based indirect ELISA for the detection of anti-M. gallisepticum antibodies in chicken and turkey serum and egg yolk, to monitor the flock’s immune status.
Positive results should be confirmed by other methods such as Rapid Slide Agglutination (RSA).
Note: the same convenient protocol (buffers, incubation times and temperatures) is used for most ID Screen® poultry kits.
- The use of recombinant proteins allows for improved specificity, and higher analytical sensitivity
- The only commercial ELISA able to detect antibodies to vaccine strain 6/85 strain, with detection of seroconversion as of 4 weeks post-vaccination
- Early detection (7 dpi) of natural infections and vaccine monitoring (F and TS-11)
- No cross-reactions with other mycoplasmas
- Short incubation times: results in 75 minutes (30-30-15 protocol)
- Applicable to chickens and turkeys
- May be used with egg yolk samples which are easier to collect and cause less stress to the layers
- Comprehensive data analysis with the IDSoft™program
- Positive and negative reference sera available as internal controls
