Cattle: Bovine Herpesvirus (BHV-1) - Antibodies gE*

LABOKLIN Service ID: 2512


Material

serum 1 ml

Method

ELISA

Duration

5 days

Remark

Glycoprotein B (gB) has both vaccine strains and field strains in the virion. There is a deletion of the gE gene in the vaccine virus and therefore no glycoprotein E (gE) in the virion, while the field virus has gE in the virion. Antibodies against gE can therefore only be detected in field virus infections, but not after vaccination alone.
