Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for measurement of reovirus immunoglobulin G, A, and M levels in serum.

Abstract

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were developed for the quantitation of anti-reovirus immunoglobulin G (IgG), IgA, and IgM in serum. The assays were specific, sensitive, and reproducible and measured antibodies to the reovirus group antigen. They should permit diagnosis of recent reovirus infection and longitudinal study of the development of reovirus group antibodies.
