| Description: |
This Anaplasma Antibody Test Kit is a competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cELISA) for the detection of antibodies specific for Anaplasma in bovine serum samples. It is intended to provide results which will give guidance about the presence of Anaplasma infection in cattle. The principle of the test is as follows: Sample serum antibodies to Anaplasma inhibit the binding of a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled monoclonal antibody to the Anaplasma antigen coated on the plastic wells. Binding, or lack of binding, of the HRP-labeled monoclonal antibody conjugate is detected by the addition of enzyme substrate and quantified by subsequent color product development. Strong color development indicates little or no blockage of HRP-labeled monoclonal antibody binding and therefore the absence of antibodies to Anaplasma in the sample serum. Weak or no color development due to inhibition of the monoclonal antibody binding to the antigen on the solid phase indicates the presence of Anaplasma antibodies in the sample serum. |
