BackThe detection of IgM antibodies indicates recent infection and WNV circulation.
West Nile Virus (WNV) & Flaviviruses
ID Screen® West Nile IgM Capture
ELISA 
- Sensitive and specific detection of WNV IgM antibodies, indicators of recent infection
- Rapid and convenient: all reagents are supplied ready-to-use
- Practical: you can easily check that all samples have been correctly deposited because the dilution buffer changes color upon addition of the sera
