Brucella OPS iELISA

This product is a new version of the original Brucella FPA test kit. Three components of the test kit (Positive Control, Negative Control, and the Tracer) have remained unchanged from the original Diachemix® Brucella FPA, product code B1001. The new formulation of the Sample Diluent provides more consistent data on the negative population of animals because it is better at handling sample background and interference. This kit contains a mix of both A and M tracers. It tests for the presence of B. melitensis and B. abortus antibodies in serum and milk from various species. Milk testing requires the use of ClearMilk™ Buffer, product code C1001.

This product is a qualitative test that uses Fluorescence Polarization technology to detect the presence of antibodies specific for smooth colony-producing Brucella species (B. melitensis, B. abortus, and B. suis – Rev. sci. tech., OIE 1982) in patient serum. The presence of antibodies is indicative of a prior Brucella infection.

This product is a qualitative test that uses Fluorescence Polarization technology to detect the presence of antibodies specific for smooth colony-producing Brucella species (B. melitensis, B. abortus, and B. suis – Rev. sci. tech., OIE 1982) in individual or bulk milk samples. It can be performed in the field, and it is used on smaller farms to quickly assess the problem. The presence of antibodies is indicative of a current or recent Brucella infection.
