Competitive ELISA kit for the detection of anti-Rift Valley Fever (RVF) antibodies in serum or plasma from multiple species, including humans.
For research use only on human samples: see References (*).
- This test does not contain any virus particles
- Excellent analytical sensitivity, sensitivity and specificity, as proven in recent outbreaks
- May be used on multiple species, including humans. For research use only on human samples: see References (*).
- Convenient and rapid format: ready-to-use, coated plates in strips, and all other components in liquid format. Results in less than 2 hours.
- Practical: you can easily check that all samples have been correctly deposited because the dilution buffer changes color upon addition of the sera
