    Malignant Catarrhal Fever (IPT) [Referral]

    Test Code
    8057
    $40.00

    About this Test

    Detection of antibodies to alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1) and ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2), the causative agents of malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) using the Immunoperoxidase test (IPT). All antibody positive IPT samples will be tested by the VN to differentiate between AlHV-1 and OvHV-2, resulting in two test charges (IPT and VN).

    Specimen

    2 mL serum
