DETECTION AND SEROTYPING OF THE FOOT- AND - MOUTH DISEASE VIRUS USING A NOVEL COMBINATION OF MONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES AND CHICKEN IGY ANTIBODIES

摘要

Present invention provides a process for detection and serotyping of Foot-and- outh Disease Virus (FMDV) in a sample using sandwich ELISA method. The present invention particularly discloses a process for detection and serotyping of FMDV using the monoclonal antibodies and chiken IgY antibodies specific to FMDV serotypes. The present invention also discloses kit for detection and serotyping of various serotypes of Foot-and-Mouth Disease Virus (FMDV). The detection kit is based on the principle of enzyme linked immunosorbent assay LISA) comprising the monoclonal antibodies and chicken IgY specific to FMDV serotypes.
