Brucella abortus / B. melitensis / B. suis

ID Screen® Brucellosis Milk Indirect

ELISA

Indirect ELISA for the detection of antibodies against Brucella abortus or melitensis in bovine, ovine and caprine milk. The test may be used on individual or bulk milks*.

The assessment of the diagnostic performance of this ELISA kit on field samples has shown that positive bovine milk samples may be detected in pools of up to 250 samples.

* Note: The analysis of milk from small ruminants and the analysis of individual milks are not official EU tests.
