RAPID DIAGNOSTIC METHODS OF PESTE-DES-PETITS-RUMINANTS USING RECOMBINANT NUCLEOCAPSID PROTEIN EXPRESSED IN INSECT CELLS AND MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY

摘要

The present invention relates to a diagnostic method of Peste des Petits Ruminants (PPR), a viral animal disease. More specifically, the invention relates to a new diagnostic method capable of detecting PPRV antibodies safely, simply and rapidly with recombinant Nucleocapsid (N) protein of PPR virus (PPRV) and specific monoclonal antibody against N protein from PPRV.
