Diagnostic anti-Avian Marek’s Virus antibodies pairs and antigens for animal health (animal infectious disease ) testing in ELISA test,competitive ELISA test, blocking ELISA test, Lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), colloidal gold immunochromatographic assay, Chemiluminescent immunoassay (CLIA), turbidimetric inhibition immuno assay (TINIA), and immunonephelometry

Marek’s disease is a highly contagious viral neoplastic disease in chickens. It is named after József Marek, a Hungarian veterinarian. Marek’s disease is caused by an alphaherpesvirus known as ‘Marek’s disease virus’ (MDV) or Gallid alphaherpesvirus 2 (GaHV-2). The disease is characterized by the presence of T cell lymphoma as well as infiltration of nerves and organs by lymphocytes. Viruses related to MDV appear to be benign and can be used as vaccine strains to prevent Marek’s disease. For example, the related Herpesvirus of Turkeys (HVT), causes no apparent disease in turkeys and continues to be used as a vaccine strain for prevention of Marek’s disease (see below). Birds infected with GaHV-2 can be carriers and shedders of the virus for life. Newborn chicks are protected by maternal antibodies for a few weeks. After infection, microscopic lesions are present after one to two weeks, and gross lesions are present after three to four weeks. The virus is spread in dander from feather follicles and transmitted by inhalation.Genemedi produces core animal health diagnostic ingredients-validated antibodies pairs Mouse anti-Avian Marek’s Virus monoclonal Antibody and Avian Marek’s Virus antigens for rapid test kit of animal infectious disease with Avian Marek’s Virus to evaluate the animal health of Avian (Bird).The paired antibodies are both monoclonal antibody(mab).
All the antibodies and antiges of animal disease test are suitable for in functional ELISA, and other immunoassays in dignostics.The antibody can act as a capture antibody and detection antibody. Antigens are validated as positive control materials.
