Next Generation Immunoassays for Infectious Diseases of Animals
Abstract: Veterinary diagnostics has an essential role to play in the management and control of infectious diseases. Immunodiagnostics originated towards the end of 19th century with the advent of agglutination- and precipitation-based serological techniques. Progress in immunodiagnostics during the 20th century is marked by development of complement fixation test, and later, fluoro-, radio- and enzyme-immunoassays during 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, respectively. Various immunodiagnostic test formats were improved for their performance characteristics …
