Use of Recombinant Antigens To Detect Antibodies againstMycoplasma suis, with Correlation of Serological Results to Hematological Findings
18 Oct 2007
Abstract excerpt
Porcine eperythrozoonosis is a disease with worldwide distribution caused by the unculturable hemotrophic bacterium Mycoplasma suis. Current serological testing utilizes crude M. suis antigens purified from the blood of experimentally infected pigs. These antigens show high variability and are restricted to specialized laboratories. We evaluated a novel serological assay based on two recombinant M. suis antigens...
