Abstract
A dipstick enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) has been standardized for the detection of rinderpest antibodies. One hundred and thirty bovine serum samples were analysed by the dipstick ELISA method and the results compared with the conventional plate ELISA method. The sensitivity was found to be similar in both methods. The dipstick ELISA does not require expensive micro-plates and an ELISA reader, and is recommended for use in field laboratories where the qualitative detection of rinderpest antibodies is required.
