| dc.description.abstract | An indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of antibodies against Pasteurella haemolytica was developed. The capsular material of the bacteria was extracted in saline for use as antigen. The antigen was not purified and therefore more closely resembled native Pasteurella haemolytica antigen. Nonspecific binding was reduced with the use of an anti-Pasteurella haemolytica IgG horseradish peroxidase labeled conjugate. The ELISA allowed the determination of antigens important in resistance to bovine respiratory disease complex. The results of the ELISA indicated that anticapsular antibodies are important in protection from pasteurella pneumonia. | en |
