General

Information

Ellie’s BRUCELLA OPS iELISA is a semi-quantitative test kit based on indirect ELISA technology. Plates are coated with B. abortus O-chain polysaccharide (OPS), which is the same antigen used in the Brucella FPA (product code B1001).

  • THE FIRST ELISA THAT USES THE SAME ANTIGEN AS THE FPA
  • RUNS INDIVIDUAL OR POOLED SERUM SAMPLES & INDIVIDUAL OR BULK MILK SAMPLES

In addition to monitoring bulk milk antibody levels, the Brucella OPS iELISA can also be used for export/import purposes, confirmatory testing, or screening of vaccinated and non-vaccinated animals. It is a robust, versatile, highly sensitive, and highly specific test. It complements the Brucella FPA by adding bulk milk testing and high sensitivity when testing animals in a negative population.
