Infectious Canine Hepatitis Antibody IgG ELISA Kit

This Infectious canine hepatitis Antibody IgG ELISA Kit is based on an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect Infectious canine hepatitis specific antibodies in canine  serum and plasma, moreover, it can be used in the supervision of vaccine antibody levels in dogs. Infectious canine hepatitis (ICH) is a worldwide, contagious disease of dogs with signs that vary from a slight fever and congestion of the mucous membranes to severe depression, marked leukopenia, and coagulation disorders. It also is seen in foxes, wolves, coyotes, bears, lynx, and some pinnipeds; other carnivores may become infected without developing clinical illness. In recent years, the disease has become uncommon in areas where routine immunization is done, but periodic outbreaks, which may reflect maintenance of the disease in wild and feral hosts, reinforce the need for continued vaccination. CH is caused by a nonenveloped DNA virus, canine adenovirus 1 (CAV-1), which is antigenically related only to CAV-2. CA
